Default Pro-Line ..Tuber Cage..for AX-10

Hi Guy's...

I'm thinking about buying a Pro-Line Tuber Cage...
Does any body have one...
What are the Pro's , Con's of the Cage...
Will my AX-10 Running gear , just bolt / Screw straight on...
Do I need to buy any extras as well...


Regards
Sean...

Hey Sean, if you are still running the stock chassis the Proline Tuber will just bolt straight to it.

Sorry if these are noob question...
I'm haveing to buy it from the USA and get it mailed over to me in Ireland...
So the Pro-Line Cage bolts on to the stock chassis...

I've used "search" on the forum,
but cann't seem to find a photo of one in use ,
or what it looks like when fitted...

One thing to keep in mind with the tuber chassis, it won't fit without modification if you decide to mirror the trans. I found this out the hard way on my 2.2 basher. Otherwise it's a slick and inexpensive way to get a tube chassis without the cost and weight of a steel one.

So if your Trans " Has been Mirrored" which mine is..

I'll need to Mod the Tuber to fit...

What has to be done...

i honestly wouldnt get it only because of how wide it is. i also was thinking about getting one but i instead got the RC Solutions Stinger Chassis. and its basically a roll cage that is also a chassis. its much narrower. how ever it is much more expensive. i guess it all depends on what kind of crawling you are looking to do. if you want i can post a picture of mine

if you flip the trans all you have to do is unbolt the front box. i built one for my 7 year old son then my 4 year old wanted one as well...after driving them i had to have one as well. rpp is the lowest i have found them and the body's are hard to come by now. i am finding it hard to buy a wraith because i like my pl tuber so much

Take the bronco body and mod it to fit the tube chassis . I did it with a hilux (my son dropped it off a the top of ourf intertainment center and broke the front end ) but they do look cool with a moded body

How do you like the 2.2 tsl's? I got the 1.9 for my scaler and they do decent and I was wanting to get some for my ax10 or the pitbull 2.2's

I love them, I think they work really good on dirt and the rocks. I have a set of 1.9's I'm gonna use on my Yota I'm building. If they work as good as the 2.2's I'll be real happy.

That sounds liek an interesting idea.. I might look into that. I actually have an Ambush CGR body (just the body) that I might try to wrap around the tuber chassis.. hmmmm
