I ran tough trucks last year and kicked ass untill my xj wouldn't finish the last race. I now have my $300 xj for this year. i learned a few things. The week links in an xj are:
1) control arms
2) crossmember
3) dana 30
4) oil pan being penetrated by drag link
I am doing this as cheap as possible because the truck will be destroyed by the time it gets jumped around the track four times.
has anyone done anything to beef up factory control arms? anypics or Ideas would be great. same with the crossmember. I plan on welding a piece of 1/4" flat stock on the bottom of my oil pan. I also plan on dropping the $45 on a dana 30 truss.
Any other Ideas on things that i need to reinforce for jumping?
