    This is actually a great chassis.

    I see what you were going for, but the rear doesn't actually articulate with this setup. I fixed it here, you should use this design instead:

    Having 2 independent arms with an "anti roll" spring in the middle works a little better IMHO, but that would mess up the look of the differential here. Example of that:
