| anyone know the difference in the SSD housings??
They have the Wraith axle housing part number SSD00037 and they have the yeti housing part number SSD00049. These physically looks similar but are obviously different in some way. Both show capability with the yeti. Is one wider than the other? If so, which one will be the same offset as the stock rear for using regular 12mm hex wheels. Was going to do a wide axle kit but this seems to be a better option to be able to run the same offset wheels front and rear.

As another option to spending $130+ for the SSD setup and the extra SSD HD shafts that are necessary after the included shafts bend because you looked at them wrong, Axial offers a Yeti wide kit that includes wider shafts, lockouts, and bearings. This kit also makes your stock rear axle or any other axle that uses lockouts, the same track width as the front of a Yeti and is less than $50 shipped. I've been running this for a while and it's held up very nicely to many tumbles and crashes. Part number AX31290 Axial AR60 full width axle set.

I didnt realize the axles were crappy from SSD.. i def dont want to create another weak link when trying to fix one. i guess I could always do the axial wide kit then if I have ar60 failures I could run the vanquish axle housing and use the wide kit with it. I am not trying to do it all at once (being broke sucks) but I'm not wanting to do anything counter productive. I would like to be able to use what I get once I have to upgrade again. rather than spend $50 then go with a currie and throw the wide kit in my toolbox to collect dust. | |

I think I'm going with the Axial wide kit and add beef tubes .... should make the rear axle bullet proof. Only wish Vanquish made the Currie axle in the yeti width |

| Re: anyone know the difference in the SSD housings?? If you mean the VP axle housing that looks like the AR60 housing but in aluminum, then yes. If you mean the VP Currie housing, no. The rears, centered or normal, have lockouts built in. The front Currie has the splines to accept C-hubs & lockouts, but it would probably be an expensive complicated mess to get the pumpkin on the correct side on the rear.

Axial wide kit will be here tomorrow... Had to order some wheel hubs so I could put the front hubs on the rear wheels and keep the offset the same. I have a set of jconcepts tense wheels I used on my comp crawler. Worst comes to worst I will mount my tires on the regular offset wheels and just wait on my adapters to come in.
