Default Weak point on the Rock Rey

I'm thinking in buying the rock rey kit in this coming Christmas. But quickly search and found they're using smaller input pinion shaft bearings ( 5x10 ) just like my Axial Wraith. So disappointed, You need to modify the axle housing to accept the bigger bearings( 5x13 ) for more durability under 3-4s power.

Any aftermarket big bearing axles coming out yet? or someone has did the big bearings modified?

Thank you

The Gmade GOM's axles used bigger bearings ( 10x15x4 ) However, I already had many frond solid axles rigs. So now I need independent front suspension rig for more stable high speed bashing.

SSD makes an aluminum front housing that uses 5x13 inner and 5x11 outer pinion bearings. SSD and Hot Racing make rear 3rd members that use 5x13 pinion bearings, Metal Concepts makes a 3rd member/truss combo that uses 5x11. Vanquish makes a rear axle housing that uses 5x14 (?) pinion bearings, and RC4wd makes a rear axle housing that uses 5x13(?) bearings.
