Default Frame Rails

Does anyone make stronger frame rails than the stock rails? Just broke a rail on the right side rear where the battery brace attaches. Due to roll over not a tumbling cartwheel.

i know there are a few alloy upgrades for the front mid section, but the rear...i dont recall anything??

otherwise, youll either need to make your own tube cage or get something from RC4WD.

Check out DMG. They make custom rears for the wraith.

No, there is no upgrade frame rail (the whole front to back section).

It broke in front of the battery brace junction , structural integrity is at a minimum.

Bump.

My boys keep breaking the main rails. I would swear that I saw Chinese alloy replacements somewhere but I cant find em now.

Any ideas?

This is the third time and they are a pain to replace..

Jcad is working on a steel frame rail chassis that works for a scx10 and wraith with adapters. Not sure how long until that comes out but might be something to kee an eye out for.

I believe those are the "cages" ptaryan654 sent you to Asiatees to look for.

This may be what you're looking for, scroll down to posts #10 and #14. I believe the truck is a Wraith (mostly Wraith) with SCX10 axles. Unfortunaltely I don't think they're in production yet.
