Dlux Delrin Axle Tubes
 
Ive been looking into the Dlux tubes as the first step to getting some better steering. But what do u do for the c-hubs and knuckles? Do you use the axial knuckles and c-hubs?

Yes you can... or you can use Vanquish products Knuckles and C's. Some people use Bully stuff too.

Check out my thread. I have the tubes and Vanquish Axial 8 degree knuckles and c-hubs.

Also... check out Erik Dlux's build thread, ax10TN, and DickyT. They are all on this first page I think.

Yep, just about any combination you can think of. If you want XR/Wraith chubs I special make those as they need a touch bigger diameter tube. I could do just about any bolt on chub that you want though if you can tell me the diameter of the tube "thumbsup"

Short and sweet answer is to use an AX10 chub and then your choice of knuckle. The knuckle will dictate which axle shaft is used.

I love my dlux tubes, this will be my 2nd season running them. Last year with ax10 chubs and RcBros berg knuckles and super 300's. This year with ax10 chubs and hacked up bully knuckles with 300 shafts and bully stubs modded to fit the 300 shaft.

They are as durable as they come. At ECC 2013 I had a major driver malfunction in gate one of my first course of the day and managed to roll the rig off a 50 foot cliff. After some help on retrieval I drove and completed every course.

Delrin tubes slide like no other over the rocks too!

Thanks for the quick answers guys"thumbsup" now as for the shafts I'm wanting a CVD or a universal. I'm not really in the spot to spend 120 bucks on some super 300s nor do I need them since I haven't been to a comp in about 4 years. I saw on your website that you have Berg/Bully shafts but then I would need to run bully knuckles, now does that mean I need to run bully c-hubs also?

Re: Dlux Delrin Axle Tubes
 
Nope, you can run a Bully knuckle and CVD while using an AX10 chub. You just need to clearance the Bully knuckle for angle and youre all set. Its a pretty cool option since you can swap back and forth from the Bully setup to the 300's or whatever you prefer.

I just got through building my first berg and I went with Erik's ( D_Lux ) axle tubes and his rear axle shafts also. Erik is a great guy to deal with and all of his products and his products are always top quality . Like Harvo said you can check out those threads I am running the same chubs and knuckles as Harvo. And the one great thing about these tubes is that you can adjust your chubs to whatever clocking you prefer and the same as the shock mounts . There is tons of adjustment with Erik's tubes .

I've been running my D-Lux delrin front and rear tubes with rear Aluminum axles for a couple months.
Setup was pretty easy if you have messed with a berg any.
Super adjustable setup.

I am running Axial Non-8* Zero Ackerman knuckles and Axial C-Hubs.

I'm not sure there is any helping me, but the truck is durable enough to withstand me at least "thumbsup"
