We got one of the first pre-production sample parts in!

The frame is a stamped steel C channel. The steel is more rigid than the original aluminum sample we had for the show truck and is of course laser etched with our Axial logos.

We'll post more when we get new parts in.

Thanks,
Axial

Looks great! Will you guys be offering the chassis for sale separately?

Yes, all the components from this chassis are available separately.

We will also be selling complete frame kits as well as shock sets but are still working on part numbers and info for these.

Thanks,
Axial

if not you could easily braze some mounts on since its steel. I think that is pretty cool. you could braze alot of stuff to it...

JatoTheRipper · 10-24-2008, 09:59 PM

That is cool. I just wish the body would be more modern and/or something more typical of a crawler - Jeep, FJ, etc.

same. the body would be cool for an aftermarket body for a custom build, but as the stock body on the production rig, not so much. I mean, how often do you see one of these on the trail? I felt the same way about the ax10 coming with the betty body. A cool body, but not something that would be comp'd in 1:1 lol. The artr body is much more fitting. So maybe when they come out with an artr scx10, it will have a more appropriate and common body.

Are you kidding? I have seen many dodge powerwagons wheelin' in competitions. Yes they are a little large for trails and things of that nature but they are awesome on big rock piles.

Anyone else looking to get one of those frames just to cut, box, and make a mean rod out of.....

Need to start looking for some old Tonka, Ertl, or Nylint metal toys to start hacking on.

oh hell yes!! Now I have to buy one of your t-cases for this chassis...

Hey Axial- give one of these rigs to Bender and see what he can come up with for a 1.9 scaler comp rig.
