    M923a1 front axle in the rear

    Finally got clarity on the description. There is a back axle on the back with front springs. Not the way previously described to me. Now that I understand.

    M923a1 front axle in the rear

    I recently saw a bobbed m923a1 with a front axle in both the front and rear. It looks nicely done, and seems to function properly, though I haven't driven it. Is this common / advisable. Thinking about buying it. Thanks Back does not steer.
