I think the softer full length comp springs would work good with them. I will have to give it a try and see. | |

| Re: Bender's Honcho............Now Sporting Wraith Axles
Hey Bender, When you extended the front and rear drive shafts, about how much did you need to add? I noticed MIP has a set for the Summit and they are 6.3" extended as compared to the Wraith set that measures 5.5" extended. Think that extra inch would get her done? Great thread BTW. The Honcho's at Axial are Koo Koo for Coco Puffs if they don't make Kit's and RTR's with the AR60's under the SCX10 chassis,,!!!!! http://miponline.com/store/mip09168.html Plus 4 of these, http://miponline.com/store/mip08112.html Last edited by olblueyez; 08-08-2012 at 06:48 AM. |

| Re: Bender's Honcho............Now Sporting Wraith Axles I do have some updates to post, just need to shoot some photos. The steering servo is now chassis mounted, and I have swapped to a 4 door Rubicon body. Next mod is converting the rear to 3 link, and flipping my transmission so the driveshafts go straight to the diffs. I will try to get some photos and an update posted soon. |

Love the honcho with the wraith axles. Just picked up mine last week. Saw your video and now I'm debating on buying all the axle parts to do the swap lol

I apologize as I'm sure this has been covered somewhere but..... exactly how much wider are Wraith axles than AX/SCX 10 axles? What are you using for hub widths front & rear? |
