Rear axle is done. With Traxxas shafts. I also added bearings to get of rid bushings.





Front axle is next.

I'm seeing the rears being a total of .270" narrower then the fronts. (.135" per side)

Guess I forgot to tell ya.

Maybe John can answer that since he has my axles.

Here the lockouts I used. Minus the ends.

Then for ball bearings. The only reason I'm going with rubbers because I run my rig in mud and water.

4x7x2.5 x 4 (8 total)

5x8x2.5 x 4 (8 total)
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXHFS5&P=ML

Then for stub shafts I used Traxxas # 3637 x2
