I changed out my old crappy suspension which used wooden blocks with compression springs to a springless suspension setup using 1/2" bolts with cast iron wheels and swapped the plastic ball bearing containers to stainless steel. i can now stand in my tank (178lbs) without the suspension even moving nor the hull. i even held my 60 dog when i stood on it, loving the steel reinforcements. Plus an added 2" of lift to the hull from the ground isnt that bad either, now its a total 3.34" from the ground. really satisfied with this suspension setup. what is a springless suspension? with the weight you say you have added onto the tank and it doesn't move sounds like it's too stiff 3.34" clearance is a good bit (got me thinking how much the Tiger will have) Chris, _Odyssey Slipways_ (http://hometown.aol.com/odysseyslipways/index.html) -- You are currently subscribed to the "R/C Tank Combat" group.
