Default Steering angle D44 vs. SCX10 XRmod

Can anyone possibly give me some info on which axle would have the most steeting angle? I love the scale look of the D44 but performance is a big thing to me and don't want to lose too much (or any really) steering angle for a better look.

The xr mod would have to have more steering being a universal (someone correct me if I'm wrong). To get the best of both worlds, scale look with xr steering you can go with the gcm Terra mod axles.

Xr mod all the way. You will never see anything close to this in a d44 or the strength

Kinda what I was thinking myself just not sold on integrated hubs in order to keep stock width.

The only gripe thus far withe integrated hubs on mine is that I wish they would have clocked them a bit more. As far as durability this weekend will be their first time on the rocks but the do feel stout.

D44's with the XR mod??? Both world's!!!

If it can be done with a yota axle, it can be done with the D44, right?

If required "machining", really stand for dremel and Dewalt drill... Then yeah, I could do et! ;)

Here's how I did mine, for my Troyota..

This is a R2j built truck and it doesn't have the XR mod. It has Axial high steer knuckles and standard Axial CVD's.

more steering?

you wont get that much, the tires are already past the link/shock mount and any axle you run wont turn that far without breaking/binding. I think its a waste of money on the XR mod, axial high clearance knuckles and universal joint axles or VP style vvd axles will get you as much as you can use and be cheaper to boot...
