So. Can you flip the transmission without flipping the skid?

No it doesn't. That is exactly the kind of wear I'd expect to see for 62 hours of driving on a trail type rig. I can do that wear in a weekend on a crawler no problem.

I thought it was funny that the wear on the roof rack matches the wear on the axles and skid.

That poor truck. Nice of them to give you that to play with, John. Hopefully mine comes a little less... used.

It is funny that even Axial won't use their crappy plastic wheel though.
LOLZ. You think they maybe had more than one test unit?

Typically, test units of any scale are purposely tested beyond their limits to try and break EVERYTHING. So yeah, this looks like just the right amount of wear. I'm surprised it's not more ugly.

In this picture the C-hub doesn't look as abused as the rest of the axle housing, at least the driver's side looks cleaner that the passenger's side, i would like to know how many of those broke, if any

Through out testing, parts will fail and that's why it's called testing. CHubs were beefed up in the early stages until they didn't fail. Adding material and changing plastic compounds are normal, but the drive train and 99% of the other parts were Flawless and didn't need change. Nothing to hide here, we are developing and building the best and strongest products for you our Customers.

I was wondering why you decided to put the pinch bolts for the Chubs on the bottom instead of on top? Would have gained some clearance there

Nice to be able to see the broken in version. Gives a good idea of how it will wear. Might need to get me one.

I think it's safe to say that the 62 hours testing was a very hard 62 hours.

I can't remember a single new product release thread where you didn't say something negative.

Most can agree with that im sure but you arent going around spewing a bunch of negative bs everytime something new comes along.
