Pro-Line Racing 6062-00 ProTrac Suspension Kit

Reader Reviews
This product came with so much hype that I was really looking forward to getting it installed and seeing my Slash handle like a dream. The fact of the matter is this thing is a pain, and I mean PAIN to install. It took me well over an hour and a half just to get everything on the chassis, and this is not counting adjusting the tie rods or glueing up the tires.Once it was on the unit, it did indeed reduce fishtailing to some degree...but that is because it increased the turning radius dramatically! So you don't spin out as much, but now you can't get through the turns without slowing way down and oh, by the way, by extending your wheels and tires out further you now need to invest in tougher shocks as you'll be bending shock shafts almost immediately. If that weren't enough, the plastic Pro-Line uses is cheap, brittle, and full of air bubbles. You'll see what I mean when you break your first of many rear hub carriers (as I did for the first time after about 15 minutes of driving on asphalt).The topper about the whole kit...Pro-Line doesn't support it by offering mounted tires or beadlocks compatible with the extended A-arms and zero offset wheels! This means that when your tires wear out, or if you'd like to try different ones, you not only have to find someone stocking the "made by Pro-line only" zero offset wheels (which few shops do) now you'll have to lose time waiting for tire glue to dry.This might be a good upgrade for someone that races competitively for money or something, but for even the serious weekend racer, save your money and your sanity and get something that will work better and be easier to install, like soft compound tires. I finally gave up on my Pro-Line kit after about 6 months, and my lap times haven't decreased at all, while my stress level and wallet strain certainly has.
