Narrowest 6s suspension parts?

[neighborhater383ci]

from what I have found it seems like the 6s senton has the narrowest track width, but wanted to see on here if There was any other way to get a narrower track because I want to try fitting my 1/5 grps under the dodge challenger body I got

Sorry I can’t offer more info but I know that you can get hubs that are less wide as well. I think off a talion

Funny, I'm talking about 1/5th grps in my thread. How do you like them? Have you used the 1/8th before using the 1/5?

But to answer your question yes the senton 6s arms and shafts with the infraction/limitless/Typhon/etc hubs is the narrowest you can get

I think 1/8 is best, but Typhon/senton arms are shortest.

The 1/5 tires would be huge and ugly lookin IMO.

Senton arms specifically are shorter. Typhon, limitless, infraction are same

This is Typhon / Limitless / Infraction / Felony vs the Senton 6s arms.

It shaves off about 5mm from each side (most noticeable in the picture by the tires.
Finding the original CVDs can be hard but there are a few aftermarket options.

Rear lower arms

Yeah I’ve used the 1/8 for years I love them, if you do wanna use the 1/5 you’ll want a soft compound or a heavy car otherwise it’s like driving on ice

Thank you for the pics, if you have any free time if you could measure from the ends of the stubs that would be awesome. I’m gonna try to just subtract the 10mm ish and see if i can make something work

I’m not too concerned if it’ll be ugly honestly I’m after the longevity of having over double the surface area, I just wanna drift them around

All good I’m doing some testing here… 10mm off both top and bottom arms to see just how far in I’ll have to have the hubs sit to clear

 

[neighborhater383ci]

Well… nope. Not even with that much taken off will they tuck into the body

Might have to make some custom fender flares or maybe get them 3d printed...

I was just about to reply with 3D printed over fenders; the 1:1 approach.

See I thought about it but my brain was stuck on making them out of polycarbonate, 3d printing sounds much more reasonable

Could take a heat gun to some poly but you really need a mold to shape it correctly.
Thermo forming is a royal pain without a professional tool.... I gave a DIY setup a try once. It all went in the trash....

 

[neighborhater383ci]

Oh that doesn’t look too bad honestly, and I think the best way to do it would be getting a whole other body to chop up

I wonder if anyone on here does commissions for 3d printing lol, i did a oopsie, also wonder if there’s a filament that’ll flex enough to not crack when I pop tires
