On the front, you can take your lower shock mount off, and have it welded on top of the a-arm, or buy some ASR arms, they are already done this way. I dont know about the rear, other than taller tires.

i had new bolt mounts made at a local machine shop cost me $20.00 i took a bolt out and showed them how long i wanted it and they tapped it out for the proper thread size. had a friend weld them on, cost a 12 pack. my son was bottoming out the front end now he doesnt any more. raised it about an inch. i have pics. on a early thread i think page 3 or 4. also the rear tires are small about an 11/2 inches small compared to a tire of the same size from another manufacturer. there is some early threads concerning this also.

cool. ill have to see if i can fab up some new shock mounts at work. what kind of nerfs are they. right now we are using the ac racing nerfs and they dont leave much room for any larger tire.
