Default SCX10 Axle Upgrades/ Mods

I have an SCX10 Dingo and looking for good upgrade/ mods to do to the axles for a little more durability and strength. Any suggestions or mods out there that you guys know of?

These are some of the most common:

Aluminum knuckles - Axial, VP, HR, STRC, etc.
Aluminum c hubs - same brands
Axial HD 43/13t ring and pinion up front
Gunnar Toobs
Super 300 axle shafts

how do them toobs work man? The actual axle shaft itself slides through them? so these basically just reinforce the mounting of the c?

do the stock axles just slide right into them and that is it? No special shafts needed or mods to the stock shafts required?

Yes the stock shafts work with them with no mods. The only thing that would require any modification is if you are running the Vanquish knuckles if I read it correctly. Not only do they reinforce where the hubs attach, they provide rigidity to the housing, and also add weight where it's needed...down low and out of the wheels.
