Default Wraith Axle Weight?

Has anyone weighed the stock wraith axle vs an all aluminum after market axle? Just curious. Thanks.

There is a little bit of a weight difference but not way too much, kinda helps bc more weight down below, Hope this helps!

Thanks for the response. I have a mix of stock plastic and Vanquish parts. I was wondering if the weight difference is significant to change to all aluminum or just wait until parts wear out or break. I'm trying to decide the benefits vs cost.

Well it's always best to have aluminum for strength, if your on a money budget that's low just use plastic till it breaks, most guys go overkill for the pro 4 systems. If your running stock or like a 35t system replace chubs, knuckles, steering shafts, and stuff your good to go!
