I too am bummed about the CVD thing !! I think I will have to follow SnoopMax's creative engineering with the LOSI LST cvd's. Looks sweet SnoopMax !!! Do you have a how to thread on this??


In regards to the slamming Chong digga on spending 2g's on the WK...Find someone else that runs and beats his WK harder than he does......, and then he posts 100's of videos on youtube for us to enjoy and learn how to modify ours to be bullet proof. I can totally see spending 2 grand from start to where he has his set up. Thankfully for him doing all the "R&D" work, I and everyone else wont have to spend that kind of cash to get our WK's that BASH PROOF.

So thank you Chong digga for all the videos, posts,"R&D" work, and advice that you have for the rest of us WK owners !!

And SnoopMax too !!

WOW! Very kind words Toyo. Thank you very much for noticing my hard work. I appreciate you having my back like this. I was getting bummed about the responses so far but yours made me smile. Thanks again.

I have been looking around at all the different Brand CVD's. There has to be one that will work with some mods. The dogbone part that most of them have for the Diff is an Easy fix, just machine it down to fit in the Diff/Locker. Its the other end. I might go up to LHS tommorow and compare and see what they have.

Good ideas. Good luck at your LHS. I'm betting theres gotta be something out there that will work with little moding needed.

I bought a set from this site before you guys posted it. Only place I could find anywhere that had mip WK CVDS at all. Got them in the mail and they had no MIP label, were missing grub screws, and were only wrapped in a tiny ziploc type baggie. Rather unprofessional but they do fit i guess. I don't want to break em so I am goin to go from VXL 3s to a XL5 and Radon motor and use it as a mud basher truck. Maybe as one of those trucks that you don't grimace too much to let somebody else drive.

I came across the Integy CVD's, bu they have a Pin Set for the Diffs??? What's up with that?? Cheap Price too, might be worth getting them and modding the diff side.

I've been looking at those too I think you have to buy the HD final drive set from integy also to make those work.http://www.rcplanet.com/Integy_HD_Be...p/intt8126.htm

No I ordered 1 set and they sent me the wrong ones and I got my panties all in a bunch about it and that there wasn't anymore full sets so RCP sent me 2 sets of the outer axles. Which is pretty cool of them.
