Default Anyone running Wraith length D44 axles yet?

As the title says.. anyone running Wraith width D44 axles yet? If so, I'd like to see some pics. Getting ready to pull the trigger on a set, and would like some opinions on them.

I have nothing to add but I'm surprised there aren't a bunch of rigs with them. I thought they would be more popular...

Same here, I almost pulled the trigger and bought one of those but noticed not many wraith owners had them. I was hoping to let someone else be the guinea pig to test one out lol...I ended up with the Vanquish axles instead and I'm glad I got them.

Guess that helps me make up my mind. I'll go guinee pig and buy a set with my income tax return. Been itching to get my crawler back up and going anyway.. It really is an addiction.

I'm curious on how the shafts hold up. I would like to get some scx width ones if they hold up well.

I'm already running the RC4WD Extreme Duty XVD's and D44 C-hubs & Knuckles in the front of my Wraith, they're awesome! Will be getting everything else in the order for the front & rear, including a new set of Beveled Ring & pinion gears for the front and underdrive ring & pinion for the rear.

If the D44 shafts are the same quality as the axles I already have, they stand up to a beating from a 14ish pound Pro4 powered wraith really well.

Cool, please let us know what your thoughts are when you get them installed etc. They are sharp looking units that's for sure. If there decent I may have to get a set for my daughters rig instead of the currie axles. Its nice to have something different of similar quality that NOT everybody has. Goodluck man.

Minor update: Received some information back from RC4WD I had requested. The D44 Axle setup for the front requires the D44 Axle Shafts. The stock wraith shafts / other aftermarket shafts are not long enough.

This raises a few questions as to complete width, etc if they're wider than stock.. If anyone has a set already I'd really like to know more about them.

For now I've decided to wait on my tax return before placing my order.

Yeah I knew they required the d44 axle shafts but I thought it was due to the smaller axle tubes.
