Default How to bullet Proof an SCX10 (Based off Harley's Wraith thread)

Since it's been asked and isn't really a straight up thread to answer the questions, i figured i'd take it on myself to borrow Harley's "Guide to a bulletproof Wraith" and apply it to the SCX10

Sorry Harley if i step on toes, i don't mean to!!

Upgrades (assuming RTR) in order of importance.

Stage 1:
Knuckles
Chubs
Lower links
Upper links
Steering links
Aluminum Hexes

Stage 2:
Tires
Wheels
Lockouts
Transmission gears
Driveshafts
Lockers or spool
Beef Tubes
All bearings

Stage 3:
Shocks
Transmission Top shaft and slipper
Axle housings
Axle Gears
Metal Shock towers

Stage 4:
Metal Trans Housing
Heavy duty outputs
HD rear axle shafts

IMHO, Stage 1 should be drivetrain:
Robinson Racing Solid Outdrive Gear: Robinson Racing Outdrive Diff Lock Gear AX10/SCX10
Robinson Racing Idler Gear: Robinson Racing Hard Steel Idler Gear AX10/SCX10
MIP Drive Shafts: MIP C-Drive Dig Spline Kit (2) (Front/Rear)
32 Pitch Spur & Pinion
And Locker's or Spool's in the axles

Then move onto Universals/Chubs/Knuckles/Links/Hex's

Please anyone throw out input on anything to add or edit!
I more or less copied the wraith thread

And I'll update the thread tomorrow when I'm back on a computer (on my tablet while at home)

Only thing I could comment on would be the front universals, as there are none made for the scx10. There are however cvd's but the stock pins need to be replaced before they come out of the bag...

Also the mip xref pdf is helpful to cross reference between the various axial models: http://miponline.com/store/media/mip...xref-axial.pdf

Good idea for a thread as there are those that don't realize which parts are interchangeable

Axial cvd's are garbage even with upgraded pins. If you're already buying alloy C hubs and knuckles just go ahead and do the xr conversion and be done with it.
