RC4WD Extreme Duty XVD Axles for Axial Wraith



CNC Machined Super Hardened Steel
Heat treated
All New Design
Easy Installation
50° Steering Angle (Stock was 32°)
Designed to fit Axial Wraith Front Axles
Extremely Durable


RC4WD Extreme Duty XVD Axles for Axial Wraith



So ive been testing these for a few weeks now..
and im happy with the product Rc4wd has Re created.

You can see in my last 3 videos i posted they've held up to
all my abuse as well as
jared's (park mngr)at Superlift Orvpark drove it for awhile in the
Rc Orvpark with no issues.


i have the original xvds to compare with or whats left of them..








and they are beefier where the old version wasnt
and in the right spots...and the pins are holding up.

Rig looks fantastic! I have the same electric box up front, and it looks like you have the biggest lipo that can possibly fit. Which one is it?

Noticed you have no droop kit on the front. Is 110mm shocks too long, how do you like them for ride height?

I earlier vids I noticed your were really low. Is sitting low with limited articulation something you did for a G6 build? Or just something you were trying?

I limited the front shocks upward travel to keep the axle from smacking the servo upon compression.

I like my rigs to be stable and predictable..
not floppy and oh gez whats it gonna do next.

Thanks! I was afraid to buy any till I knew for sure where to start, sometimes the measurements they give aren't accurate.
