Senton Senton 6s stability help

[Rcfun2]

Looking into increasing the stability of my senton... has anyone used longer A arms to help with stability? If so what did you use? Is there another 6s platform that has longer a arms and shocks that will help me keep the rubber side down?

Yes widening it helps alot.can use all typhon suspension or swap out hubs an steering blocks from a kraton widening it 1/2on each corner(truggified)is what they call it

I'm gonna have to check that out to see what it looks like. Any idea how far the typhon suspension will widen it?

Well I like the looks of that I wonder home much 1/2 inch width will help the stability. Probably worth the money and work to keep the rubber down. Thank you for the pictures and information I greatly appreciate it.

Hubs are dirt cheap and come with bearings. Not sure if the shafts will come up short or not. Can always just add hub extensions like a lot do.

Definitely stuff to think about... I may go with the typhon suspension mainly because I've already got one of those... less parts to carry

1/2inch made huge difference on mine,sentons are barrel rollers into the turns ,1 inch wider helps th irritating rolls an cuts down all the walking g to flip truck over,also saves body from damage,I went through more senton bodys than any other rc I owned ,rolling,sliding body mount busting,end over end ridiculous crashs

@K-BASH is the Senton 6s expert!!! I'm about to start a Senton 6s build with Typhon chassis, Senton 6s parts and other mixed Arrma parts. Most of the info I got was from his posts/build threads.

This one (link below) was extremely helpful, especially for the arms. Thanks K-Bash! If you don't mind, I may be hitting you up when I start that build if I run into any issues.

Hey I appreciate everything. When I picked this truck up I wasn't aware it was discontinued. But I absolutely love it and up until today I've only ran it on 3s... today my 2 2S batteries came in and I was able to drive it around after work for 15 minutes or so and I was very impressed with how much that changed the truck. Also another more rolling. With all that being said I've be seriously debating whether or not I should keep running it since it's basically a collector's item.

I'd run it. Most Senton 6s parts are still readily available, even the lid.

ROFL U know what else helps with roll-vers in a v2 Senton.... Self righting capabilities lololol

I haven't been able to find and original painted green hood. You can still get these?? Where at? I've been looking at different ones to keep the original as nice as I can.

Could not keep any tires on it,destroyed them all within 2 packs

Not sure that's actually a thing for arrma... 10 yrs ago I was a traxxas guy. A buddy of mine turn me on to arrma so I decided to give it a shot. I'm now a owner of 2 used arrmas and to be completely honest I haven't been disappointed yet.

I went belted trenchers, they have held up so far.
