Finally, a way to lift your CEN Racing F450 and fit MASSIVE tires. This does NOT include the truck or any tools to install. It is a 3/10 on the difficulty scale and requires no special tools beyond a 2mm hex wrench. Comes with all necessary hardware to bolt on and should take less than an hour.
Highlights:
Fits up to 5.4" tires (and maybe beyond). The truck in the photo is utilizing Proline Carbine 1.9" dually wheels wrapped with 5.4" Proline Boggers.
Completely Bolt on. No cutting, sanding, bending, grinding at all. A 2nm hex wrench and an hour and you truck will look like the one in the photos.
Made of PETG and overbuilt. These parts are tough. I can stand on this chassis without axles and not break these brackets, and I'm 200 lbs.
All stock geometry preserved. Sway bars preserved front and rear. This kit moves the ENTIRE driveline down 40mm. This means the motor, transmission, axles, 3 links and panhard links all move down front and rear. The steering servo also moves down. This keeps the driveshafts from falling out and also keeps the panhand and steering geometry intact. Far better than just sticking longer shocks and hoping for the best.
Improved handling VS just longer shocks, lower CG
Reuse the stock 78mm shocks and bolt them directly to the chassis rails or opt for 120mm shocks and mount them in the stock locations (travel limiters recommended to keep the axles from making hard contact with panhard/chassis/links etc).
90mm(trx4) shocks at the chassis and 130mm(proline big bore) mounted to the stock shock hoops have been tested and work well. 90 or 130mm will lift the truck 50mm over stock.
100 and 110mm shocks have not been tested and are not recommended unless you like to get creative with installs. These shocks will cause driveline issues just as they would on the completely stock truck.
