I removed my coupling blocks, is it safe?!

So, I was doing some preseason fiddling last year and decided that wheelies were something that I missed on my Nitro. With the track now stretched to 136" and improved hookup, I figured this was a good mod. It's a lot more fun to ride and I can still handle the corners so I thought it was a win. Then one day I was in at a local dealer and he said that I will probably bend a shock and then wreck my new longer track. Is he right or is this just a dealer toeing the company line? Has anyone had this problem? I'd rather not put them back in after have a year of fun riding! Any input would be appreciated, thanks!

I have had mine out for a year with no problems, just my 2 cents. I have the 128 star relocate done.

How's the transfer? Does it transfer too much in the corners? I have the 128" relocate myself and kinda miss how much it transferred before, however I don't miss it in the corners lol.

Transfer is good at take off and not to much coming out of corner as I drive semi aggressive.

My brother had his out all last season. Prob 3500 kms with no problems. Sled hooks and launches like an animal too.

Oh ya, there's a definite fun factor! I just wanted to hear from others to see if it's a viable long term change.
