hey sweet thanks guys i didn't think TXT axles or even Clod axles where big enough , you should be able to get those at your local hobby shop or do you have to order it in?

your best bet to find a set of clods or txt's... either look in the classified section. Unless your LHS has an open kit... i doubt you will be able to get just axles from them. check out http://www.jpcustomrcs.com/home.html they have clod axles (stock, or modded)... or even look on ebay.

Most of the hobby shops I have been to dont carry TXTs or Clods. I found a good deal of a set of used TXTs on e-bay.

lol!!!!!!!! they might work if i had a 1:1 scale rig but maybe with the same gear ratio and the benefits of an actual size diff but for a 1:6 scale that would be killer
