IFS is best kept at ambient temperature in a pile of scrap in the backyard.  When kept under a functioning vehicle, it tends to greatly diminish said vehicle's offroad ability.     -reklund5

Here they are once I took the Amigo apart:



Mocked up on the chassis:



And I am hoping to cut the springs down so that the toyota sits a little lower - it looks better this way:




Had to paint them.  Tonight I will be assembling them - I think.  I don't know how I'm going to do it yet, but I'm thinking I might just use hot glue since they're going to sit on the cake anyway:

Cut the top of the amigo off, like yours is, it'll look better, cause you never use your hardtop anyway

Jason - I think I'll build them first, then if I have the time or the will to cut the top I'll do it.  For now, it's staying complete :yupyup:

is it that the toy looks better lower, or that you want your amigo to sit higher than it?  :laugh:

The Amigo IS taller than the Toy for real :eyebrow: But yea, it does look better lower on that chassis.  And if Matt'll let me cut the springs on both rigs - I will and lower them both :yupyup:

Heck yeah LOL if I can't lower the full size rig, I may as well do what I wish I could do with it - to the mini scale :rofl:
