Don't have any experience with those, but if they use short side XR rear shafts, then yes.

That Wraith hybrid axle didn't last long on your website. How much more would it be to have one with the hidden hardwares and no lockout?

A hybrid would be $92 bare.
All aluminum is $150 bare.

I'll have another hybrid like the one above probably tomorrow.

We are just slammed busy and meeting some deadlines is gonna prove difficult with the holidays and school schedule for the kiddos changing over the next month. Just don't want to rake on too much and not be able to fulfill jobs.

I think they use the long XR 10 ale shafts. It's the 'long beef tube' mod for the AX-10 housings.

Is this a stock wraith width axle or a narrowed version.

I like those 9's with the black widow center section, do you think the axles would be able to handle mamba monster power? I only ran the velineon on my last truck and went through axles, I was using the wraith rear axle on that truck. was hoping to find an axle/ housing combo with wraith width and link mounting dimensions that would be able to handle the mamba monster with this truck... really like your work man! let me know what you think, any info is helpful!

Not sure on strength. You can definitely build a Wraith style housing to withstand the anise though. Just takes a little money.
