| SCX10 driveshaft/suspension
A week or so ago I bought an Axial SCX10. Stock it did exceeded my expectations. It wasn't til after I installed a larger suspension and tires that I ran into a problem. The wheels are 2.2 beadlocks with 5.5 tires. I think the suspension is 120mm adjustable. When I put the susp on and took it for a drive, that the driveshaft decided to fall apart. It has too much strain on the shaft for the stock 27t to smoothly run. Basically my question is, is there a 2 piece driveshaft for front and rear I can put on it to handle the angle from the transmission to the axle. Pretty handy when I comes to building stuff. Got parts numbers. All purchased from tcscrawlers.com Aluminum shock set #TD12001 Axial 2.2 8 hole beadlocks AX8096 Rover crawler tire #677772 Help is greatly appreciated.

Clock your axle pinions up to ease the angle.

Rovers on a SCX, that has got to have some tire clearance issues. The new drive shafts from Axial come with 3 different lengths, that might help you out but clocking the axles will me a must with those huge tires. Shorten the lower links until the axle pinion is near straight, that will be a huge help.
