I know some folks like to use the WK axles for the Willys Jeep builds, the downfall has been the weak dog bone front axle shafts. I was on rc4wd's site today and noticed they now show CVD's available for the WK axles. I personally have not seen them put up a notice about the availability for these CVD's so if I'm spreading old news, feel free to flame away!

It was mentioned in the WK section. We're eagerly awaiting them to be available.

There is another option, courtesy of Snoopmaxx, for those interested.

You can use these cvd's. You have to cut the dog bone off the end and file the flats.

And these knuckles (not the carriers)

Losi Front/Rear Spindles & Carriers (LST, AFT) [LOSB2101] | RC Cars & Trucks - A Main Hobbies

It requires four 6x12 bearings and a little filing on the WK "C".

not flaming just letting everyone know they look just like the wraith CVDS of course just shorter and ive personally seen the shaft break in half. Just want to let everyone know before buying them. I buy stuff from rc4wd all the time but not the CVDS. Ive seen and heard horrible things all over about them

I'm sure they are still stronger and allow for more steering then the stock dog bones.

If anyone needs a set of wheely king (crawler king) axles...pm me. I have a set I don't know what to do with, and a bunch of leftover aluminum parts.
