| New Crawler Axles.
I didnt see this on here anywhere, but Integy apparently is releasing an alloy Crawler axle, looks to be ~ same price as the RC4WD axles, but no pictures. Spool: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LNTBR5&P=G Differential: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LNTBR4&P=G |

They are Clod axles. Basically they took all there parts and put them in a big kit. Complete Crawler Axles!

but thats plastic vs. metal... 400 for a set of alloy clod style axles... not too bad... and locked with a spool.

You could get RC4WD's rendition of a Clod axle for $299 per axle, or $600 per truck http://rc4wdstore.com/product_info.p...roducts_id=476 Kinda makes $400 sound a little more appealing |

| it actually comes in at $273.98 for both axles with spools if you take advantage of the $20 discount for orders over $150.00, juts place 2 separate orders and if you are member you get free shipping to boot |

Yeah, if your wanting Clod axles, that looks to be the only way to go. Bling and strength, hopefully strength anyway. | |

I don't like the cast center cases. They look cheap and they seem like they would hang up easy. Other than that, Integy has some decent replacement parts for the Clod axles!

i would like to bring up the RC4WD raptor 2 axles but it looks like there never going to come out. RC4WD is taking there sweet time on those axles. RCP will pobabely come out with a similar axle to the raptor2s and they'll come out before the rapator 2s. LOL -RC4WD you guys need to put it in gear and start selling those axles! |

I had the cast Cases aswell. The weight is to much for what I wanted. I didn't see an issue with dragging on the rocks and stopping me. But that weight robbed alot of Power and WheelSpeed.... Thats way I'm selling mine now.
