**NEW** DLUX gearboxes and tubes

[glondark]

That's awesome man, really glad to see this.

So if I order a set of Delrin tubes for my berg boxes now, i'll be able to swap them over to this center section later correct?

I just read the specs and saw the detailed photos on page 1. Those are incredable Erik. You have realy gone all out. Just what the Berg cummunity needed. So just one question..... Do you need a tester in WA???

[Erik D_lux]

Thanks Ted, I really appreciate it and I really hope it gets some people geeked on crawling again.

The line for testing is around the block right now. I think I am up to 6 PM's asking for testers. LOL

[Erik D_lux]

I also wanted to bring up that these have NOTHING to do with the MT boxes that are also being worked on. There was quite a bit of confusion about this at the Shootout.

These are badass man.Think you're going to offer these in super width???

That was just because our brain cells were frozen and moving slowly. No confusion anymore...

Not sure how anyone could confuse those custom one off boxes for the stock MT stuff.

I am also interested in the answer to this question.

If you need a testor for supers let me know. My truck is setup for it.

Does the rear link mount mount to the case higher then the front due to the gear box configuration?

Yep. My super cases will be made with the test sets I am going to make this week.

I will keep you in mind. With super stuff having almost zero interest I wont be putting too much effort into them. Pretty much make some for myself, hope they work and if they do, wish everybody else luck. The super will be a bit different than other super setups, I will continue that in the super section though.

Yeah, lots of things effect it. Right now, its just the easiest/cleanest way to mount it and the amount of clocking makes a big difference. As said above, you can easily drop it down. Without any mods, just using the screws that already exist you can drop it as much as a half inch. By drilling a hole in the link mount, you can put them anywhere from where they are now to that .500 mark and then if you want to put more work in, you can drop it down to the same level as the lowers.

Are they done yet????????????






You guys have no idea how bad ass these Axles truly are.

I had the pleasure to spend all weekend with Erik and his rig.
I have been geeking out on them for a while now.


Just can't decide if these will take the place of my ti fighters or not.
Decision decisions.....

[Tgreer]

OMG!!!!!

I'm in love with those axles!

[RICrawler]

I need to be on the list for the first run on these bad boys! I cannot stop checking this thread, so sick! And I thought I had my berg right where I wanted it only a few days ago... Oh well!

[Harvo]

I looked back through and I may have overlooked it, but how are the bearings retained? Are they flanged bearings with the flange on the inside of the CF plate?

[Erik D_lux]

Yep, flanged on the inside.

[dstrbd1]

I also got a chance to check these amazing axles out at the Shoot out. Its freaking awesome that Erik is stepping up to bring another axle option to the sport. Amazing work Erik.
