No need. RcBros has a bad ass set coming out. I am going to offer them as an option with the cases.

You should be able to literally buy an entire roller from my web site, 1 stop shopping.

HA! Oh ya my conditioner started to curdle, I'm pretty sure that was your fault.

This should have been included in above post:
I think a vendor such as yourself stepping up with these is HUGE, and the possibility of being able to get everything from knuckle bushings, to axles, to a full blown rig is what keep us on the rocks. Kudos my man and ill be hitting you up soon.
Keep the ideas and innovations coming.

Well Erik, you just solved the issue I was having. I was literally just discussing with a co-worker that I didn't know what I was going to go with for my first Pro Comp rig. I was discussing going with a bully or a berg since the XR10 was getting so hard to find and if you wanted to have a better axle, you had to drop several hundred dollars to beef it up. I had read all the way through Stubs thread on his bully and I was swaying toward the bully. I just saw this thread, looked at the photos, watched the video, and having read the large number of threads and comments about the quality of all your work, and my decision was made for me.

Once I have the money saved up, I too will be buying these axles. This new team now, the companies collaborating, makes me VERY excited for the future.
Thank you for working with so many folks and offering input to your customers and answering their questions. IMHO, this is the way a vendor/businessman should be and it will continue to serve you well as I believe you are one of the most respected names in RC and I can't wait to sport DLUX stickers on my rig!

Finally had time to sit down and read the whole thread. You make it tough not to go back to a berg. My biggest complaint was all the modding and work you had to put into them. Now it looks way less stressful to wrench on. Top notch stuff.

Yeah, these will really help some out. These will be the first set of axles produced where you spend the money up front and they need ZERO upgrades. it will be interesting to see how people react to this idea.

Awesome... waiting for their release!

"These will be the first set of axles produced where you spend the money up front and they need ZERO upgrades."

2nd set maybe? Ti/Alu-Fighters, not many around but no upgrades required

The fighters are great axles but its very debatable that they do not need upgrades, at least in their form that they first came in.

To Erik's point, every set of axles has their good and bad points.
I love the AL fighters under my rig right now. They are without a doubt VERY good axles and are working VERY good for me this year. That being said, they also have some downfalls.
The key is being able to do the best you can with what you have. I think the vendors here have taken berg axles to a new level.
Lets just hope it keeps changing for the better.

Do you have some decent pics of the axles with the wheels mounted? Mainly the front? The paparazzi pics a couple pages back got the rear axle good but not the front.
