Seems the question has a few things mixed together so I will try and answer...

The SSD Pro knuckles for Wraith are a scale 1:1 aftermarket style knuckle that is high steer:


They dont have longer steering arms than stock and they dont need a shorter steerling link. They are just higher than stock.


HD D60 knuckles are similar to stock Bomber/SMT10 knuckles but with 13mm bearings in the front:


They also dont need any different steering links.


The HD D60 rear axle:



The D60 rear is different to the stock rear AR60 axle in a many ways:
1) Centered diff housing
2) no separate rear lockouts
3) larger (13mm) pinion shaft bearings
4) thicker axle tubes
5) looks much more scale

Thank you for the response! that axles is actually what got me looking into your knuckles and Chubs. Since I got you here if I were to buy the Pro Knuckles will I also need to buy the pro Chubs or will they fit on stock Chubs?

Apologies for incorrect info, without both pairs in hand to compare I have misinterpreted the notes on the Pro product page referring to parts req'd for the RR10.
Had not realised there was a HD D60 knuckle with the big outer bearing, I llike a lot, would like even more if they we're high steer as well.

This was answered in another thread recently: Axial Wraith Plastic Axle Options

The front axle drawing was done at the same time as the rear but the numbers dont justify it at the moment.

I assume you mean ring gear, no it cant. However it's usually not an issue as you just flip the gear in the front axle to match and change your motor direction in the ESC/radio.
