Here's why you can't fit axial guts in a yota axle...

The axial ring gear is as big as the whole case of the yota axle. There simply is not enough axle for those parts to fit into.

Here's the damage inside my axle.. Every tooth is sort of rounded off like it just shaved the tips of each tooth off, like it was improperly shimmed. Hmm.

i'm definitely going to think real hard from now on if i really need that rc4wd item, especially if somebody else sells something similar. i most certainly will not buy direct from rc4wd...
