| SW3 gets an update
Here it is, my 2.2 for the Colorado winter series Info and all that jazz BENDER CUSTOMS SW-3 prototype Slugz Racing INC signature double triangulated links with arched rears AX-10 axles Pede transmission Holmes Hobbies Revolver Black (will be going back to a 3013 if drive shafts hold) Quark33 from Holmes Hobbies Hitec 645mg G-made wideners 2.25 inches GC at ride height about 3 inches GC max articulation is barely one 12 oz can So far the only thing I do not like is how high the battery is so I might have to build a custom pack |

Are you worried about spinning the driveshaft pins in the input shafts? Seems to be the question with maxx shafts and the Axial axles.

Still no beadlocks. Looking good slugz, it looks like there might not be any tlt axles left in CO at this rate. |

Do your top links not bind on the chassis?

I may have TLT axles but I'm not competeing with them, except rock racing. I really do not see what you guys see in these Axial axles. They are sloppy, brittle plastic, weak dogbones, and well I better stop now.

Well you obviously have not crawled very much and do not use your junk.

I think I'll be trying the Jato rodends if I actually get to build mine up Are these shafts tougher to drill than the TLT's? I think on my last rebuild of the TLT's I got some Hi-lift pinions by accident...those were friggin' tough. | |

I'll vouch for 666 and his opinions, no one on earth is harder on RC than he is and he has broken more crap than I have owned I just want to try them out and see how they hold up to MY driving and if the ring and pinion lasts longer than two comps I will be sold! |

Good to see you back wrenching and posting again Slugz, it was mighty quiet from you for awhile. Are you using your 60/40 set up with your new axles. The rig's looking good.
