Vorteks Widening and wheel options for Vorteks

[lemonteksunrise]

I started to do something like that a while back but then I realized, if I got v1, 4s arms, which fit just fine with the stock granite shock towers, coupled them with the v2, 4S hub carriers/C blocks and the V2, 4S driveshafts on a swb chassis with a typhon wing, 130a esc, 4068 motor, 6s shocks and backflip LPs… I would end up with something like this. A super durable and amazing jumper, one of my favorite cars. Thing, the 4s vorteks hybrid.
Just something to think about.

That is sick. Not the route I’m heading as I’m basically done once I get the cvd issue solved. Heavily upgraded and wanted to keep it more stadium truggy style. I’ve got it wide and kinda low.

Makes sense and good luck getting it how you want it!

This is how it would look with typhon arms and 1/8 buggy tires/rim from louise rc.

Hey there Lemonteksunrise and welcome to the Arrma Forum!

One of the best way to widen your Vorteks is with Typhon 3s/Big Rock 3s suspension arms. If the arms still don't make the truck wide enough to your liking, you can use the suggestions that slick2500 mentioned.

Are these the proper arms for the typhon arms on the vorteks?

Is there anything else that needs to be changed? Linkage or ???

Oh yes you need the camber and steering links as well.

Those tires look massive. I was thinking of going with the Big Rock Ragnarok tires.
