Default Lucas's Wraith Build Thread

I wanted to do a build thread but never could find the time so here is a built thread. This is my Son Lucas's wraith. He has managed to break almost everything!

Current Wraith build:

Wraith RTR
Tekin ROC 412 3100
MMP
Proline Powerstroke Shocks
DLUX Upper Shock Mounts
Axial Rear Sway Bar
MIP drivelines
SuperShafy bulletproof trans w/6mm outputs (54 spur / 10 pinion)
Axial HD gears (front and rear)
Blue Monkey Knuckle Weights
Hitec 7950 Servo
Traxxas diff bushings
Fast Eddy Bearings
VP TI links (upper and lower)
VP Lockers
VP Currie Axles (front and rear)
VP C-hubs and Knuckles
VP TI Steering
VP SLW Rims
Pitbull Rockbeasts 2
CI Comp-cut Foams
DMG Long Stiffy Kit

Working on:
Seats
and a ton of scale items

I am sure he will break more... so more pictures and upgrades to come!

I love the stuffy kit. It wasn't too hard to get either and a fair price!

It is my sons wraith. I bought it for him and didn't realize he would break almost everything... once I put the ROC 412 in it was funny to see what broke and how.


Yes SLW2's I think they are the best looking.

Not custom axles. Just Vanquish Products Currie Rock-Jocks.

Currie Axial Wraith Rear Axle Silver ax80069

They look awesome.

I went brushless and waited for the next thing to break. I can say she has made it through 3 packs and still going!

Wraith flex with and without rear Axial sway bar (lightest sway bar rod)

I think the flex lost in the rear is worth the reduction in torque twist.
