| Capra axles on a monster truck?
I’m starting to come up with a baseline for what I want to do for an axial based monster truck build but I’m kinda leaning towards xr width, and the Capra axles are looking very tempting to use. As I do not have a Capra, does anyone know if jconcepts or proline monster truck wheels will clear? Or if I will need closer to wheely king size? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'm not sure portals would be the best option for a Monster truck. Those are usually top heavy to begin with, and with those massive tires, axle clearance isn't really a concern. I'm also not sure how well those portals would hold up to the abuse that those massive monster truck tires would put them through. That's a lot to ask out of that upper portal gear.

Yea I understand that portals aren’t the best option. I’m hoping someone comes out with a kit to not run them soon Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

People are snapping Capra axle housings. They aren't going to hold up in a monster truck.

https://www.rpphobby.com/product_p/bt007bswxr.htm I though Boom Racing made a set of XR width AR44 housings too but I guess they only make the XR width axles for AX10 gears. https://rccrawlercountry.com/Boom-Ra...R233035ABK.htm | |

Thanks! I thought I checked Rpp but I guess I didn’t look good enough. I have a set coming for both axles! Once my ifs wraith 2.0 is done, the monster truck is next! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
