very interesting! are the SCX2 shafts allowing all the steering angle the knuckles are designed for? what's roughly the max steering angle you achieved? thanks |

Edit: Everything works up to 60 degrees then the knuckles hit the c hubs. Last edited by svt923; 05-17-2017 at 04:54 PM. | |

So what exactly do I need in order to run these on my SCX10 ii ar44 axles? I have looked around some but for the money spent I figured I would ask directly. Thanks. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

Sorry, I wont be getting on here much anymore. Its much better to get ahold of me thru email at dluxfab@gmail.com or thru facebook. To run the knuckles on AR44, you want to get the knuckles for Wraith/XR, the chubs for AX10 and then single sided arms. The material choice is up to you but those are the basics. Be aware also, on the AR44, you need to do some grinding on the arm to get away from the panhard. |

Necroposting...but this seems to be the only thread I'm finding on these knuckles so far. Does anybody have these on scx10ii/ar44 axles that can tell me (and even better, show me) what kind of steering angle you're getting with them? And what did you do, if anything, to improve the steering angle? It *looks* to me like the limiting factor will be the rodends hitting the c-hub, is that the case? Really needing some real knuckle weight for a scaler that will allow for at least 55 degrees of steering, preferably 60 degrees. Most options out there are just not heavy enough, or they limit the steering too much even with some grinding. |

Granted I have a couple sets of these on AR60 axles, but the knuckles themselves are very similar. They'll allow more steering than any normal axle shaft will allow. They have threaded holes so you can install a bolt with whatever size spacer you need to act as proper steering stops. Without any stops they'll go about 60* before the knuckle contacts the c-hub, the exact angle varies slightly between c-hub brands.

Yup. Buying Dlux stuff fits into the buy once, cry once category. When I first found out about the 8mm stubs and matching knuckles I thought they were pricey. Then after breaking several sets of axial universals and wearing out the kingpin bores on multiple sets of knuckles, I've realized I would have saved money in the long run by going straight to the Dlux knuckles and shafts. |
