Default My Wraith

So my wraith started life as a spawn rtr and one of the first runs I broke a lower link, a trip to rpp and 3 days later I had some vanquish ss links in my hands. A few runs after that I blew the stock servo out and replaced it with a cheapy savox one. I got a run out of that one and it started cutting out, at the moment I thought it was because it was drawing to much power, so I got a hobby wing 1080 and that didn't do a thing. While all this was going on I collected some tires and wheels and the stock wraith body panels. I threw all of that stuff on and also bought a eco power servo. That one worked for a battery and a half then started glitching out, I got that one warrantied and threw in the new one, that one worked for a while, a about a week and a half then burned it self up. That is when I got a big ole savox and that thing is so fast it scared me the first time I turned the tires. I then stripped the tranny gears so I tore everything down and threw in some vanquish ones. At that same time I made my own battery forward tray and it made an insane difference in its crawling capabilities, it keeps the receiver box in the stock location. Just about an hour ago I finished my fastback mod so all of these pictures are fresh. The motor is definitely on its way out so any suggestions on that would be helpful. If you have any comments or suggestions let me know. I will be updating this thread every time this thing gets a new mod.(Sorry for the terrible pictures, the camera on my phone sucks)

So I broke a front axle yesterday and I am wondering if I should go with the vanquish universal's or Axials universal's for an upgrade. If you could let me know what ones you like better that would be great, thank you.

I have zero complaints about the Axial universals, been running them for several years with no issues, brushless with 3s (and for awhile 4s) even after I had clearanced them for more steering angle. They are finally getting sloppy though, so I've been weighing my options too.

That said, the Incision universals sure look like they've been beefed up as much as possible while still retaining their "drop in" replacement compatibility. I found a good pic here that shows how the size of the joint absolutely max's out the available space in the c-hub (assuming you have OEM, or Vanquish c-hubs, as these axles don't fit in some other brand s of c-hubs):
SSD C-Hub and Incision CVD’s

Now if you're talking about the Vanquish VXD axles/spool, those are slightly bigger still (and more than double the price) but they'd be the strongest of the bunch (that you mentioned... there's definitely stronger ones out there, like Dlux FBA's.)

Can you please tell me how you got those front end parts to get that Rock bumper installed on your rig? That is a 1.9 Wraith, correct? I can't find those parts or see how to configure that front end like you did to get that bumper installed. I have the same body and am trying for a similar look to this.

Thanks in advance.

My bad, I guess the Spawn already has that front end and bumper on it.
