Xtra Speed axle Finally received my axle for the front of my rig. Everything mounted to it perfectly. Added 100 grams and ran me $25 shipped. http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...pswl4pozoy.jpg http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...ps64wfjj2b.jpg Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk |
Re: Xtra Speed axle Nice where did you get it from? How long did it take to get your order? |
Re: Xtra Speed axle Xtra Speed Alloy Front Rear Axle Housing Axial SCX10 II RC Cars #XS-SCX230056BK | eBay they look pretty good...hows the fit and finish of them? |
Re: Xtra Speed axle The fit and finish is excellent. I have the counterpart for my Bomber and those are about 4mm narrower so I had to modify the lockouts and the c hubs to fit. Not on these, everything bolted on perfectly. http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...psex9rcwjt.jpg http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...pspho1djrf.jpg Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk |
Re: Xtra Speed axle I appreciate the fact that it's literally the stock axle - down to just about every little aesthetic detail - except made from aluminum. (Unlike a lot of other ones where they're completely redesigned. If it's as decent as it looks, then getting that for $25 is a pretty boss deal. (especially compared to the Currie axles) |
Re: Xtra Speed axle If you didn't know it was aftermarket.... http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...psltydafxq.jpg http://i1243.photobucket.com/albums/...psywq1peqf.jpg Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk |
Re: Xtra Speed axle It took about 2 weeks to show up, but I chose the cheapest shipping option. Sent from my SM-N910P using Tapatalk |

Re: Xtra Speed axle These are aluminum not pot metal like the phat axles? Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk |
Re: Xtra Speed axle Definitely not ferrous. Won't know until I break it I guess, it is a cast piece from the looks of it though. |
Re: Xtra Speed axle I'm mostly curious how easily they get scratched and how they slide on the rocks Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk |
Re: Xtra Speed axle It just came in and was installed yesterday. There is snow on the ground right now but should melt by the weekend. I will update as soon as I have some time on it. |
Re: Xtra Speed axle I agree.. |
Re: Xtra Speed axle Pot metal is generally referred to as low quality metal, not a specific type of aluminum or steel. |
Re: Xtra Speed axle I like the looks and price but skeptical about strength if indeed being casted. Let us know how durable they are. |
Re: Xtra Speed axle More and more options...... Are you NOT entertained? |
Re: Xtra Speed axle I took a gamble and ordered a pair. Price is too good to pass up. |
Re: Xtra Speed axle Got my axles today and i must say for 25 bucks a piece, they are nice. Virtually identical in dimensions to the plastic ar44 axle housings. Ordered them from eBay which was done through RCmart in Asia. Took about two weeks to arrive. Everything was threaded and utilized the OE hardware. I'm very happy with the fit. Mated to all my strc aluminum bit fine too. |
