Wraith/AX10/SCX10 pinion bearing mod These are now available on my site. $20 per housing Bearings are supplied with the mod.
There has been a change...... I went from a 5x16 bearing to a 5x13 bearing. This leaves all the crucial materiel (no longer as deep) and then some but still gives a much better bearing than stock. In our testing we still did not wear out a bearing and had no housing issues. In the picture there is a 5x13 bearing installed and to the lower left there is a 5x13 next to a stock 5x10 so you can see just how much bigger it still is. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...ps62fa0226.jpg AX10/SCX10 housings are now available! I do not have a dedicated section for these on my website so they are under "universal". http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x...psd995ee87.jpg |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod that is a nice mod i need to have my axles done . |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod how long would it be if i send you my axles ? i would love to send you my 2 sets of axes to get done. |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod It would take me either the same day or 1 extra days to get it out. |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod ok thats coo ill have to get them out |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod I have a few people here I need to talk to "thumbsup" |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Would you be willing to do this service on my Vp Currie center sections? I could just send the two centers.... This mod would greatly improve the reliability of my Class 3 rig I'm building. Great idea once again man"thumbsup" Thanks, Farmer |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod I am not sure if it even can be done on a Currie center. I would have to take a look at it. Can you tell if there is enough material in that area? |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod whats the new bearing size you put in for the mod ? |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod 16mm |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Ok, never mind all that weird pricing. I just went and bought a bunch and made them all at once to make things easier on all of us. Now these are at one low price and ready to buy now. "thumbsup" |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Awesome mod...I've been waiting for someone to do this."thumbsup" Now if you can do it to the Vanquish Wraith axles I will throw money at you!! 8) Any chance? . |

Sorry, I just think its too risky. |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Quote:
I completely understand. But I will say if you decide you want to give it a shot I will send you a brand new set of Vanquish Wraith housings. If you mess them up no big deal...my loss. I'm willing to take the risk and be the guinea pig. Lol If you don't want to, its all good...ill just buy some of your modded plastic axles."thumbsup" . |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Well, thanks to Dan W, he is already going to send me a set to check out. I will let you guys know how it goes. "thumbsup" |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Awesome...cant wait! 8) . |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod Have a pro4 in my wraith and just blew up my overdrive gear. How is this mod holding up with this motor? I have been running bushings front and rear internal and external. The external bushing is making the plastic housing lose. Will this mod help with that? |
Quote:
2x modded housings ordered! Thanks Erik... B-) Edit: I blew up 2 od gear sets in mine, before the power and before the bushings.. not enough mesh on the R&P teeth to hold up to power.. IMO.. |
Re: Wraith pinion bearing mod That looks awesome. Do you think you'd be able to this mod to a scx10 axle in the stock housings? |
