Hey Brad It's about time for ax10 axle redeux, right? You should tell Axial everyday that the masses want an updated axle similar to the AR60, but proper width and link mounts, and doesn't really need to be OCP. Just removable diff cover would be great along with new uni axles and accepts XR10/Wraith type 8deg knucles What do you think? |

| 2.2 gear ratio
I just bought the Proline TSLs and I was wondering if you changed the gear ratio on yours. I have a stock AXIAL Honcho Motor and ESC. What do you reccommend? Also I put 100mm Axial shocks with red springs. Was that a good move or bad move? Thanks |

The 100mm shocks will raise your ride height a little, as well as your center of gravity. But, that could be a good thing if you run in large bowling ball sized rocks a lot. For steep flowing rock, a lower ride height would be better. | ||

| Re: Bender's Honcho............Now Sporting Wraith Axles
Hey Bender, Couple questions about the Wroncho build... Did you stretch the wheel base to 13.5in simply because you wanted to, or did you have to stretch it to accommodate functionality of the wraith axles? Would the wraith axles have any issues running at a 12.5in stock Honcho wheelbase, or would they just look a little funny so close together? Otherwise, seems pretty straight forward: 1)Invert shock mounts 2)Bend upper links 3)Add XR-10 Rod ends Couple pages back, you even discuss link lengths, which eliminates the guesswork!!! Thanks. |

The rest of the conversion is fairly straight forward, there are a few small issues that come up, like upper link driveshaft clearance, but nothing major. | |

Hey Bender, I just have a quick question for you. I know you moved the rear axle back, but did you move the front axle forward some to? If so, how much? Thanks for any info.

| Re: Bender's Honcho............Now Sporting Wraith Axles If I remember right the front axle is in the stock location. I will double check when I get home though. |

I've been thinking about running these axles on my Honcho. Other than the internals being different (and needing upper links for the 4link) is there anything else that needs to be done to make it compatible. Sorry if it's been asked before And are they wider than the Honcho axles? Last edited by Armistice; 01-21-2012 at 02:55 PM. |

Bender what drive shafts are you using on this? I have a rig with a 13" wb, 3 link with panhard up front but my rear shaft is long because it's offset like yours. My MIP's don't fit out back but easily fit up front with the 3 link. Any mip's a little longer then the scx version? I tried looking on the MIP site but they don't list measurements for all there shafts.

Cool thanks man... I'm using the wraith shaft out back too but it's not getting as much engagement as I like so I gotta make it longer. But I'd much rather get an MIP for it... something tells me the wraith shaft won't last long with a tekin pro4 3300 kv on 4s lol

IM sure my truck is rather differnt then his because i didn't flip the mounts or stretch the rear. I'm running hot racing wraith links all the way around. Here is a picture of the width differnce between the stock scx-10 axle(front) and wraith axle(rear). ....and @bender- how long are the shocks your running and what are they? |
