Re: pic: vex suspension

what i did is i put the 1 inch standoffs(8 per wheel) bolted to the prebent metal on a 45 degree angle the i got the spacer kit from vex labs and used 2 half inch spacer(2 per standoff and sand the ends a little bit to so they roll) drilled out to fit over the standoffs then i used the rubber links cut the ends off and put a hole in the middle and stretch them over the spacers. each wheel takes about 6 hours to make and ive spent $150 to make a set of 4 im going to post them shortly with the suspension setup cuz i designed it use both the mecanums and the small wheel and made it modular 2 bolts its off
