Default Axle Swap between brands

I have a Remo Hobby 1093 that I've already converted to brushless, LiPo 2s, alloy transmission and driveshafts. My next plan is to upgrade to metal axles but I can't seem to find the right width axles. I know the 1093 is suppose to be an Axial SCX10 Honcho clone but I've searched for SCX10 axles and they are only 185mm from hex to hex and the Remo is 216mm. I've even looked into swapping TRX4 portal axles into it but those are not as wide as my stock axles either. Where can I find metal axles that are the right width?

You should be able to scx 10 axles, you will just need hub spacers maybe slw and wheels.

Also the xr mod will get 1 in closer to your goal.

If you really want to find an axle with no spacers that is closer to the correct width look here.

If you're considering portals, 10.2 axles with SSD portals are 213mm.

These fit just fine. I started out with the 1093.

I thank you all for your advice, it was much appreciated. In case you were wondering I went with Axial SCX10 axles and 19mm hub extensions. All together it will be about 10mm wider than stock which will help keep it from rolling over at high speed. I know it's a crawler but my son and I got carried away modifying it and now it can do about 20mph.
