Assembling SSD's Pro44 axles

[XSRCdesign]

Thanks to SSD for supplying these parts so I can share with all of you.

Assembly was a breeze, and the included instructions were a nice touch. All the hardware you need is included, so if you are like me and don't want to tear apart your truck to harvest parts, you have the option to do so. (or if you want to retro-fit a original SCX )











And a video for the type that likes that kinda thing

Most excellent! I am pretty excited about SSD's recent offerings....

So the Fast Eddy kit doesn't come with those 2 5x11x14 bearings and I'm not totally crazy. When I put my Pro44s together I was really confused when I was missing the two end bearings. My workbench isn't the cleanest right now and I spent a bunch of time looking for bearings that I guess never existed. Luckily I had a few of those in ceramic sitting around from other trucks.

These Pro44 axles are my favorite thing to come out for our tiny trucks in a while. The fit and finish is excellent and the design is gorgeous. They look amazing under the rig I put them on. I may be ordering another set soon. They're so good.

Fortunately I checked before I ordered the bearings and noticed they were two short. Not sure why? But I noticed and figured I’d pass on the info.

I think I’ll be ordering up a set of the diamond axles for another rig here soon. I’d like to try both styles.
