All I have to say is that with these axles you build the rig around them. They look great, can't wait to see where you go next.

Customer wanted a setup like we built for Showcase but w/a suck down winch to hide the servo. Showcase's setup With winch We started with a VP housing as usual then machined a new long side steel tube. Used a Dinky Rc "s" link again and proceeded with chromoly tube to build the winch mount and skid |

Rowdy wanted to go further with the shave mod. Was able to get another .100" out of the diff. Any further will compromise gear integrity. These now have .200" more clearance than a stock housing before plating. Removed .180" off the OD of the under drive ring gear. I don't have any countersunk 2-56 hardware for the skid but it's ready to accept them when they arrive at their destination. |

| Re: Carter Fab & Machine Custom Scaler Axle Housings So this is basically the same width as a XR modded AX-10 axle? |
