V3.1 Minor Update - March 1, 2025
Completely revisited skid released; matches the stock rear H10 geometry and design. More room for spur cover and different 4-bolt transmissions other than the Axial/VP 3-gear. Strongly recommend upgrading older skid to this variant.
-IFS2_Skid_3gear_v2.stl

V3.2 - March 4, 2025
The rest of the V2 skids have been added ; this mimics the stock H10 rear link mounting locations; results in better rear geometry.

-IFS2_Skid_BLANK_v2.stl

V3.3 - March 15, 2025
-HD front skid added; (IFS_Front_Skid_v2.stl)

Currently requires the usage of the included skid and a 4bolt (3gear) transmission (SCX10/Element/VP SCX) etc, R2 LCG, or Nod2 Dlux style transmission. A blank skid without holes is also included for other custom transmissions.

The Stock H10 CMS (chassis mounted servo) location is used with a 20mm servo horn (VP Cast horns work perfectly and are recommended. Servo to be facing forward with horn forward. If horn cannot be centered at 0 servo travel suggest offset 5-10 deg towards passenger side as shown in photo. Beware a standard size servo is required in the CMS location.

A 45mm (Centre to Centre) Steering Link is required; typical construction includes (1) TRA5525 and (1) TRA5347 Rod end connected using M4x20mm Grub Screw. See photos for example and product info.

The Element IFS2 width is closer to F10 than H10. I am using F10 style width axle in the photos; beware if using H10 rear axle you will need wide SLW on the front and narrow on the rear to suit.
