Not very much. The lockers dont work well anyway, they always pop unlocked and break spider gears, nothing but problems. I use creeper axles on my sportsman rig and just filled the diffs with QuikSteel.

They didn't even make the body wide enough to fit their own axles.

Well, that may be a plus then. We might be able to use it with other axles. Problem with the Venom axles is you are limited to the wheels you can use because of the zero ackerman knuckles.
