the thru pin is a terrible idea IMO. I seem to break every output with a thru hole.

Are you saying you break the pinion shaft at the through hole on a regular basis?

Its alot better then 2 set screws.

But how are you breaking those? What are you running? Can't believe you dont have any other weak links to break before outputs.

Never heard of breaking at a through hole except on axle shafts

RRP through holes are butter, went through a few of these. Never broken one off at the pinion though...

I've not heard good things about the one piece RRP gear.

I'd recommend the Holmes torquemaster out drive.
If you destroy one, he'd probably give you a new one. They're super strong.

Went to them a few months ago, in the 6mm flavor Ignore that long bolt, just making sure it all lined up.

It's just a new pumpkin that uses the already available tubes, correct? Harley's video also mentioned the $120 range for a complete axle setup IIRC. He mentioned that VP was able to save a lot in the manufacturing costs of these over the Rockjock replicas.

Yes, existing tubes work, new center section, 3rd member and truss. However the RJ truss will work also.

Quantities are stacking up for initial release, so there will be a big batch ready. Wraith is in progress but will take a couple more weeks to get the trusses and such done.

Any chance VP will come up with a skid to protect the 3rd member lower bolts? Seems like on the rear axle they will just get smashed all to hell and not to mention catch on everything. That's what I like about the Rock Jocks, they are smooth on the underside. SSD made a skid for thier diamond axles and I applaud them for it, but I want these new Curries because I want an offset rear axle for my Bomber.

Hey Harley, love your videos man. I got a question. Will the wraith AR60 truss work on the F9 housings or do the Wraith Currie rock Jock truss work? I'm using the F9 housings on a wraith. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
