i think it would be pretty heavy and slow your xmod too much.

it seems like if u but wieght on the back (even with hard suspension) it would just make it bottom out.
and if it did do a wheelie wouldnt the body hit and scrape these
x-mods dont exactly sit high

the body can be fixed. and suspension wont move with the springs i found. took them out of a oscillating fan. they'll barely budge without pliers
