Default Help me decide

I'm getting ready to build my first scale crawler. I'm going to go with the RCP Wreckluse Chassis but I'm undecided on axles. Should I go with the TXT, Axail AX-10 or the T-rex 60's? I want a nice looking axle that performs very well. What are some pro's and con's to any of these axle sets? I am new to RC Crawler's so please bare with me, I dont really know what any of these sets are actually capable of. Insight, suggestions, opinions, and comments welcomed. Thanks

The TXT axles are way too big for a that rig in my opinion. The axials are the perfect width and are priced very well and are completely upgradeable. The
t-rex axles are absolutely gorgeous ,and are the same width as the axials if I am not mistaken, but they are expensive.
Axials about $100
Rc4wd T-rex60 ABOUT $360 with the 4 link mounts
So it's basically your choice, if money isnt a problem the the t-rex axles, if you wanna save some green get the axials

i would do the t-rex 60's, just because a "some-what" scale Dana 60 is bad ass. but maybe you can find some highlift axles or maybe some tlt's on ebay cheap. your crawler, your choice.

Stick with Axial axles the strength alone make it worth it...And under the BIG wreckluse they look great

If you can get a hold of a set of TLT axle's, It will look awesome(with strength).
next in line will be the T-rex, then the AX10 axles. All will work well. But the AX10 will have the most support as far as parts.

The TLT and T-rex axles dont hold a candle to the AX10 as far as strength...

STICK WITH AXIAL AXLES

Well, I know the T-Rex axles are out due to the pricing. I'm gonna think about it for awhile before I buy a set of axles. Can you do a dig unit on a TLT axle?
