Shouldn’t the suspension “triangles” be mounted the other way to increase the damper movement vs suspension movement? See: https://www.google.se/search?q=f1+front+suspension&client=ubuntu&hs=kCf&channel=fs&dcr=0&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjH05-V3p3aAhXPhqYKHTDJBjUQsAQIKA&biw=1432&bih=917#imgrc=UCPXuOLHkyL3fM:
And other axeamples.

@Kent_Asplund I see what you mean, I based the design off the traxxas revo which also uses cantilevered suspension. I guess with the amount of leverage due to the mounting point being so close to the knuckle, I could decrease the fulcrum in the pivot blocks. I will do some testing and if need be, shorten the rod pivot length and increase the shock pivot length. Thanks for your input and suggestion.
