Getting Bully axles. I'm tired of breaking rear housing. I've got mine a little on the heavy side now and it crawls really good, but damn am I tired of breaking housing.

I've never heard of/nor seen anybody breaking the rear axle, it is usually the front.

I have broken my fair share of axles, except they were fronts, from high drop offs or messed up binds, heavy wheels and tires tend to break more stuff.

How heavy are you talking about? I run no weight on the rears and about 4oz. in the front.

If you are planning on going the MOA route, stick to the bergs, more room for upgrades, RC4WD stuff is all show no go.

I still have my stock housings on a 6+ lb rig. Even with the plastic straight adapters in the back I haven't broken anything, and I ain't easy on my truck.

What are you doing to break them enough to be sick of it?
