Default Front axle shafts. VPs Incision SSD

Which would you go for?

I like the VXDs having the 60* turning radius available without modding.

But the VVCs look pretty good and are 5mm shafts.

Then they offer the Incision option.


I have had really good luck with SSD gear in the past.

Which would you go for?
Why? Given on the steering angles.

How long you been running them? I'm trying to figure out if the VP VXDs that comes with the spool is worth the 136 bux.

I see the Incisions are about 67, but no locker. Out of stock atm at Amain. I see the VPs VVDs are 87, but again, no locker. which by the time you add it, is nearly the cost of the VXDs. However the VXDs have way more turning radius with no modding needed, unless the chubs/knucks need to be whittled on a bit for more turning radius.

Thanks for the info.

If it matters, your tires will be into the links, and the steering rod ends hitting the housing before you're able to use anything more than about 50°.

I just use the axial ocp universal shafts and they have been fine. Split an iron cross locker in half and the shafts are good still.

I have the Incision links on the way, and that appears to offer more clearance to allow more turning radius, but I could be wr.... wr... err wr.... errr. Mistaken on that. lol

Good info. I wouldn't mind saving a lil money, but 20.00 isn't really anything to fret over... Hmmmm

How did you like the Dlux shafts? Looks great for $60 if they perform well and hold up over time.
