What chassis and links will work to these A60 axles?

Can i just buy one Carbon LCG chassis made for
1/10 Axial SCX10 & SCX10 II ?

Will these wide axles fit these SCX10 chassis ?
And SCX10 links ?

If possible i would like to avoid Wraith Chassis.
Because i have not find any. And im afraid these have expensive
and different Gearbox.


I will use 2.2 wheels. Proline cliffhanger body. 10mm brass hex wideners
I want this rig mega-WIDE !!!


Can i order these axles and SCX10 LCG Carbon chassis with links?
Will everything fit?

Shocks, im thinking 100mm

i like to keep it Budget friendly.
Nothing extreme.

Please help.

Sure, it will all fit. There will be adjustments required for the links.

Well this is good news. Now i am happy. Love these wide Wraith Axles.
No need have wideners to these

Thank you alot Gula.
Will order them today or tomorrow.

I did found Extension kit to SCX also. 3inches more.
So i can have 408mm wheelbase. Thats cool guys.
Same like CEN 250 Truck almost.

This can be something to my big Mud Truck Plans.

I start with these axles first to try

[Jjay]

I also wonder about links, if i buy chassis extension kit, 2.5 inch, i need then offcourse 2.5inch longer links then right>?

This extension rails are to rear end, do i then need 2.5inch longer links in rear only>? Or i must have 1.25inch longer in front and rear>?
Most stupid is that they dont sell this longer rails with the links also.
And strange they dont sell links at all. Only this rail extension. China you know how they are.

Is there any chinese shop that sell longer links?
I know there is US companies that custom made these things. With tax and expensive shipping over here i live they end up very expensive sadly.

I use to order alot stuff from US 10-15 years ago, shipping was cheap. And many shops did low price vat info.
Todays they only send with full price info, no help anymore, and shipping prices are outside of US about 5x more expensive than before.
Crazy prices today.

This is why i need buy from China or EU, they write tax included to me, i dont need pay anything, and 9 of 10 cases they help with free shipping also.
Sad US dont help anymore. Maybe new rules in US? that is sad.

I did also buy alot stuff from UK before. After Brexit this is not possible anymore. Alot tax + customs and expensive shipping. This is also sad.

Anyways the Links info after extending rear end in my Crawler is most important for me to know,
I wonder if i need longer links in both rear and front? the extension is rear only. So maybe i need longer links then only rear?
Please help, i dont want order wrong stuff.
I believe i need rear only? 95% , i need your help to be 100%
thanx

Now that everybody has added their $.02, the thread has been cleaned up. Let's stay on topic, but to the OP, please understand that sometimes threads drift off topic, and I'm not cleaning up every thread that does so. It's part of forums.

you can make your own links ... and adjust accordingly with long or short rod ends. standard treaded rod and either brass, steel, aluminum, any pipe you would like to use should do it ... you sure have your hands in so many projects... maybe focus on one at a time to get yourself more knowledge and experience rather than be all over the place with so many overwhelming options you set yourself with. Not that my 2 cents are worth anything.

I built a Wroncho a few years ago with flat chassis rails and AR60 axles. Drives so much better than the Wraith chassis. Any flat or c-channel rails will do.

If this helps?

I like to do own in Brass actually, to have more weight down at parts that
are not at drive line like brass wheels that i was thinking about.

Very good idea. Should i buy these Axial bent type rod ends?
also couple others, these are dirt cheap from China couple $ only
for 10pack, i will anyways build one 6x6 too, good to have maybe



These exteners are very cheap like 50pc different mix pack lenght for only 9$
I could just test in beginning at easy trail 20mm 25mm 30mm what happens
and choose the best and do own links from scratch in brass after i know perfect lenght?

Is M3 /3mm links enough ? or should i go M4/4mm ? M4 rod ends are from bigger cars like 1/8 or 1/7 scale maybe ? will they fit ? these are bigger
Or is M3 durable enough?

Yes i need stop buy more RC Cars now, and build these projects.
You cant have 10 different crawlers at same time fixing them.
Or you will have RC Burnout, stress. And never learn anything
and also never learn drive the specific ones what they are capable of
without many packs behind them.

thank you for helping, many great tips

Sound great, been looking at that treadh now 2days.
Must say these AX60 looks so nice and beefy. Love the style of these wide
rigs. Many nice builds there. These must be very capable rigs you have custom build.
Thank you for that build treadh link.
These are great for learning.

I will return next week with couple other questions.


This is great forum to get help from and learn.

Thank you so much guys , you are great

Check out summit/e revo pushrods. I installed them on wraith to lengthen the rear. Nice and strong, with 4mm threads as opposed to 3mm. I can get exact measurements of the 2 lengths if needed. Then you can use the traxxas ball ends which come in various length.
