| Rear axle problem
Well I started building my wraith kit and ran into my first problem. The rear end has a bent axle it's the short one. When you spin the diff the part of the axle sticking out with the threads has a pretty good wobble to it. Has anyone else had this problem.

are you sure you put the bearing on the axle shaft? without it you'll get a wobble.

I had some wobble with my highland lockers but it doesnt show much when moving. My wobble comes from the stupid stock foams moving around! looks like ive bent an axle after a good jump!

Yes it has the bearing and I don't have the wheel hex on yet and you can see the wobble in the axle when you spin the pinion by hand.

If you can see the wobble at the threaded end, you should be able to look at the axle and see the bend.

find the bend, bend it back with some pliers or contact axial.
