Those are delrin pieces. Will use double sided tape to attach.
I'm gonna make these axles solid steel also with an aluminum 3rd and I think I will go cantered. If I didn't, I would go extreme offset on the rear. Diff would be right at the wheel.

I have a feeling we can do some negotiating to help you out. Wish I could buy just the center sections.

That short side is it. That's lockout and all so the tire will be bolting on right outside that. Probably an inch or so. I don't have my Titan housings here to check for comparison. I'll measure the distance from pinion to end tomorrow morning.

Short side is 2.375 to hex pin.
Centered diff is 4.700 to pin
I think stock Wraith short side is 3.500 to pin, of I just crunched those numbers in my head right. Don't have a stock housing here to be exact but that gives you an idea.

The Titan 60s are coming back home, again. Shooter Fab took on the finish welding and has out done himself.

Can't wait to get these assembled.
The Ultimate 9 housings are so nice they will be gettin their own rig built around them. And it's going to change everything. All I'm saying right now is Grade 5 and a lot of it.

Looks like Carter Fab and Shooter Fab are a great combo
