That looks sweet!!! Do you just have the Top half for the front, or is there a rear as well?

I've been out of the XR10 field for a bit. Other then just strength, is there a large benefit to these? Less gear flex?

Yep...no more worn out plastic threads...and we're ensured a good straight and solid installation of the gears and upper link mount. The aluminum upper link mount took most of the problem away, but the upper axle half will take all of it out...we should be on a short track to BULLETPROOF now!

| Hell yeah. It will stop the upper link mount from flexing around and breaking the final drive gear. You will also be able to tighten the crap out the upper link mount onto the housing. |
