Hey clay how much for the 5/16 wider (each side) scx style axles you were going to do. I am super interested (will buy if I can afford) I have two new lockers coming. I can do all bearings and gearing. Just need housings and axles. Or if you want to do drop in I can send the lockers to you but don't mind the assembly part myself.

I also had an idea that might make it possible to use both short side shafts and narrow the housing. What if you took a wraith or scx vanquish style link mount and welded or bolted a tab flat on the back that extended it over to the wraith housing link mount holes next to the center section on the short side. Basically using the stock wraith short side link mount bolts to bolt up an easily customized link mount. What do ya think?

The latest set of custom housings. Narrowed Titan 60s. Based off of VP aluminum AR60 centers, steel long side tubes, housing narrowed 1.125, stock link geometry kept, front has custom aluminum truss with integrated panhard mount, hidden link hardware, and plenty of VP goodies.

They will be in bulldogs hands before weeks end. Check his build out to see them I'm action. It's his southern buggy build.

$$$?????
Very nice & clean....

CarterFab · 11-11-2012, 11:35 PM

Varies depending on customer needs. Don't think I've done the sand thing twice except for a couple of the centered diffs. Pm with your needs and I can get you a price.

How much does this setup costs?

CarterFab · 11-29-2012, 09:25 PM

I made that before RC4WD started making their centered diff. That would be your cheapest route for an aluminum centered steering axle.
If you want a hybrid or all American made assembly with VP parts, send me a PM.

Bulldog · 11-29-2012, 11:09 PM

Edit...if you want a KILLER set of All American axles...Contact Clay. You'll be very satisfied.

CarterFab · 02-01-2013, 04:33 PM

Currie RockJock 60 Assault housings. Let the fun begin!! These will be XR width for my new build.....coming soon!!

Bulldog · 02-02-2013, 12:39 AM

Make an extra set for that San Diego guy.

CarterFab · 02-02-2013, 07:49 AM

There are more scale 1:1 housing coming in 6 weeks, I'll be building a custom set of them as well.....just wait.
You may change your mind

CarterFab · 02-17-2013, 06:12 PM

Keeping with the Made in USA stuff we offer, I have partnered with VP to make sure every assembly I build gets only the best parts and made from the best pieces money can buy. Also will help you save when getting full custom assemblies, as you won't have to order stuff from multiple places and be shipping parts all over place.
Carter Fab & Machine is your one stop shop now for the ultimate scale axle housings and the toughest stuff to hit the rocks.

I heard a rumor you sold out to a company in China? I thought you were going to have a new username? DAKARTADAFAB KONICHIWA MACHINIWAH FOR SKALIWOOHOO!

I don't know the details of this connection (I'm guessing a dealer?), but I'm a fan of VP and a satisfied customer of CFM, so whatever it is...it's all REAL good. Keep a brother updated by email. I have some needs. G

couldn't you use t rex 60 link mounts?

dman10 · 03-20-2013, 06:47 PM

How about some HL pumpkins with more scale tubes? I could use those right know. Oh, and I'm not sure where Hogeye is, but I'm over here outside Austin. Go Texas!
