Well I was holding off putting my axles together. But the last of my axle upgrades didn't show up today. I ordered them from RCP on the 10th and shipped they were shipped on the 12th. Now they are sitting in Anchorage, AK. I guess Alaska is between California and Washington. So here is the axles together with what parts I do have. |

IMO, delrin would look more sinister |

| I made and ran some black delrin links,they are great on the front but would flex A LOT on the back. I made some new bent links from 316 stainless and then bead blasted them ,I kinda like the flat silver look better than green. Not that there's anything wrong with green ! It is my favorite color of M&M !

ive never liked delrin for links it gets scratched up and doesnt slide as well over the rocks.. i use stainless steel personally, i like the weight and the fact that its considerably more durable than aluminum or delrin.
