Default flipping rear arms to make it short wheel base

Can you flip the rear arms forward on mid motor to make it short wheelbase?

Only problem i see is, the shock will meet the turnbuckle unless the turnbuckle moved forward too with new parts.

Saw a lot of people that tried it, like a lot of goofy things when the car first came out, none that did it successfully.

I did it with great success





The final version was a thicker when the ball stud was and anoed black, you had to take a second look to see what was done. It worked very well or carpet, and even better on dirt. I might be able to get my hands on another pair if someone wants.

Robby, first time I've seen that mod, but I was asked by a local driver to make them, Maybe he'd seen it?
