I would be careful with 11t pullers. I have 16ts in my rig right now ( very similar setup, only different chassis) and they are a little weak on the drag break. Which helps with some smooth down hill applications, but if I'm climbing and switch into dig I have to keep a little power to my rear so it doesn't roll back (this I can do easily with a twin stick). So I would caution going to an 11t puller because there is even less drag break/holding power in this application.


Other than that gotta love that parts list

I run 13t pullers in my xr so just assumed the 11t's would be close to same with mo speed? Ty for that info I will prob not go 11t then cause 13t is plenty!

I will change them around the right way E! I was sooooooo excited to put em on they just jumped on there lmfao

Hey I tried to flip em around & they don't seem to fit that way? The Bottom of the knuckle stops the brass holder from goin up far enough to bolt it up. Is there something else i need to do cause I seen your thread where urs are other way.

I think this has more to do with the weight of the rig. with the loaded dice and rear weight

??? You feel like you got the same amount of drag as 13t with the 11's...really like I mentioned above 13t is plenty of jumping obstacle power

What's drag brake? Lol...

As Curt mentioned, they don't lock your axle solid..
Buuuutttt.. I ran the 13t and FXR's and always liked that it let the rear axle roll a little. (At times)
The BR's lock up solid, so I have to have some, give, somewhere..

You get use to it and don't notice.. IMO..

Dont stress the guy out! LOL. He already had concerns.

They are setup at approx 35* with the gear box flat so if you bring the box up about 10*, youre only looking at 25* or so. You can also rotate the chubs for less caster if you want since there are multiple holes on the AX10 chubs.

My guess is that they are about 28-30* right there. Should be a great start. Lengthen the uppers a hair to get more clearance under the box if needed.

That car will be setup exactly like mine except maybe how much knuckle weight you run. You will be good.
