damn. think i'll get some different parts to see if i can make something work. other than bearing size, are the axial ones close? like if got different size bearing, or knuckle might it work? just answered my question, thanks rotten. |

I have heard of people running axial knuckles with WK axle C's. They use the stock axial stub and the WK dogbone. It takes about 1/2" off the track width. Might be a good way to get high-steer....

Heres your problem with the CVD's though. Too short.  Last edited by rottenbelly; 04-19-2010 at 11:24 AM. Reason: Fixed info |

I think the bearings have the same I.D. I just stuffed a WK dogbone in an old wk hub and it was a nice fit. Just way to short like rottenbelly shows.

@ rottenbelly... so the axial knuckles will fit the rcp C's? so you could use an axial cvd and the hex pin would line up and everything, but the shaft just won't reach the locker? if this is the case.. i'd cut the axial cvd in the center somewhere... slip my bearings on.. and weld a piece of rod in there... iam poor so id just use a piece of an allen key..lol... for those of us with welders..

The rest of your idea sounds good. I was thinking you could use a long berg dogbone and cut it down a little. You can see how much thicker it is at the dogbone area. Should hold up a bit better along with the axial cups.  | |

Why doesn't some one buy these: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXHLX4&P=7 as a test subject. They would have to have the end cut off and filed to the same dimension as a stock shaft so they fit into the diff. but it's worth a try.

Something to look at is going to be the length of the wheel hex to knuckle measurement. Now you guys got me thinking!! Guess i will take my calipers to the hobby shop. |

i was trying to find one with a cup end to use the still good outers, but no such luck, yet. most are too thick or too short.

| http://tcscrawlers.com/Super-300-Sup...s-p-18076.html Just found Super 300's for Super class crawlers. Comes with two long shafts. So you would have to shorten them up a smidge for a WK. Then figure out how to mount up a stock Berg steering knuckle. Last set of axle shafts you would ever have to buy, that's for sure! I bet you could do it all for $175, hahahaha! |

No one wants to try and bug RCP into doing another order? I am sure if we get enough people willing to preorder we can get something done. I wanna get at least 2 sets... |

Some manufacturer is really missing the boat on this one. With all the WK's out there it sure looks like the demand is there. Has anyone contacted MIP directly to see if there is any reason why they have not brought the WK CVD to market? Did RCP have some legal rights to the WK CVD. Of all things why has HPI not become involved? I know all their stuff uses dogbone type drives, but you would think HPI would want to step in on this? I have a few sets of the RCP WK CVD's, but I continue to run the stock axle shafts in my crawlerfied WK. I don't do comps, but I have not broken a stock shaft in a long time. Driving style, or just lucky?
