MRC axles have no aftermarket lockers beyond the HR aluminum one and it doesn't have a good reputation.

The Losi lockers are getting hard to find.

Options to run a spool that would fit axial stuff for xr and lcc modded mini's. Then we could run cut down uni's up front and straight shafts rear.

Set the tabs back on the locker so a shim kit would be required to run the stock pinion, but give the option to change the shim pack to run different overdrive/underdrive pinions without shaving the housing to shim the whole thing over which causes engagement issues with the axle shafts. Being able to move the ring gear independant of the spool would help eliminate shimming/slop/gearing issues many of us have.

That would be awesome.

Also, better heavy duty extended outputs to run larger spur gears/ drive shafts, like Crawler Innovations has for the AX10. My 66t spur rubs the shaft up front but I love the torque it provides. The trans lockers are also hard to find so lets eliminate them with something never offered before........ Possibly allow guys to run something similar to the Maxx shaft upgrade. Wild boar or summit etc.

I'm not sure though, haven't put much thought into it.......lol

Once pricing is worked out I'll be starting a new thread to allow for preorders, I'm fairly confident pricing will be the same if not lower than what they were previously.

Not to be an a$$ but RC4wd just started offering a Hand Bros CMS replica.

I miss the non-slipper input shafts for the AX-10 transmission. Iv'e seen a vendor offering a Ti version ( supershafty??) but I'd just like the inexpensive and bullet proof Axial version. The Tamiya suspension stays ( brackets) were great for scratch built frames, they just are almost impossible to find in quantity anymore.

What else..... I know- the Stage3Racing spools, they were relatively inexpensive and damn near indestructible. Too bad they just blatantly copied someone else's design and called it "theirs".

Sure would like to see an over/underdrive transfer case for all the axles out there that don't have those gearsets avail at the axle.

FYI its not the same. I used my own measurements and calculations. It looks the same because that servo position is the best on that chassis IMO.

Get your facts straight before posting crap.

I remember being able to by Kyosho Magnetic mayhem 22x1 550 motors for $20 a pop. The rest of the "mad science" series of motors were pretty good as well.

Last two NIB ones I found, almost a year ago, were reverse rotation and $35 a piece.
