that being said, integy makes lots of inexpensive cnc parts that are great products, including for my RC helis, where tolerances, fit, and finish are CRITICAL. great products, and great prices. if they ARE cnc, and anything like the parts ive bought in the past, you wont be disappointed. | |

These are cast aluminum. I don't have a set yet to look at, but RCP crawlers here on the site sells them cheaper than that...

yeah, cast, much cheaper than machined. RCP just started a thread about them not long ago, he will also have the new integy clod axle tubes.

Im not a clod guy but the looks appear to be chrome plated cases, not machined. the edges are way too clean to be machined. The bracing would have a small radius if it was machined. Just my 2 cents

| Aluminum Alloy, molded, not cnc'd. Just wondering why you'd buy them off E-bay instead of supporting the vendors here at RCC that support this site?

they got this new method of forming metal, i think its called casting? maybe thats how these were made search the vendors section, if its on ebay and clod related you can bet its here too. ***Integy Aluminum Gear Case for Clod*** |

cant wait to see the axle tubes. would be good to get some feedback from people that have used the cases as well. also, RCP havent got any cases left according to the inventory. |

these are pretty nice...there some heft to them thats for sure I had some JPS axles to compare them to in my past overall granted JPS is better (MOO), but integy for the price you cant beat it. |

I may have to get a set for my clod. Quote:
For me, it is because I had a not so good experiance with the one vendor I know of that sells them. It was resolved, but left a bitter taste. | |
