Got my Axial Trans with Bore shaft installed. Drive line is a nice direct fit.






Just a basic trans for now. Not planning on puching huge power threw here anyway.

The trans and tcase setup they have to fit the Scx. I don't like the angle of the teams mount in it.

Ah

Just looked it up. Looks like a pretty steep angle, But better than mounting that sucker with no interior I guess...

This 4Ten is really nice fits really well with the body.

If you can't find a hubcap, take one of your existing ones and press a shape into some playdoh.

Mix up a batch of 2-part-epoxy and fill your playdoh mold.

Remove playdoh when epoxy sets.

Smooth up any rough spots

Rub on and cover your new epoxy hubcap with Bare-Metal-Foil and then lay on a coat of clear lacquer

Instant Hubcap!

Last night my rear Yota II showed up.






Started doing some mocking up...



Front has CAC five spoke with Rok Lox
Back CAC ONE9 12 Hole with Pit Bull
I don't think ether will make it here but given me some sizing references



Axle is the perfect width
