We will start production on Monday, a very limited first patch should be available mid or late November.

I will post prototype axle pics as soon as I can.

Estimated price target is in the $75-100 range per axle. Knuckle price is not available yet.

Hopefully you guys can streamline it & get rid of the bulky look.

On own axle yes, on the F-350 one, it will be hard, because we still want to make sure people can use all those add on parts together.

I agree, would love to see you develope some leave mounts/blocks/Ubolts to add to the scale factor as well.

Reguardless, they still look better than stock TLT axles.

Awesome for any custom (maybe my next one ). Does need to lose some bulk off the pumpkin though.

Exactly, but these would be stronger, and still in production.

IMO, if your doing alu axles for the hilift, then a straight, no steer rear axle is a must! i'll buy the 1st set if thats done

We are working on a straight axle already. We hope it can be done mid or late November. We got that request from Wyatt Racing, the guy who build that truck on our home page.

We simplified the TLT-1 axle housing as well:

We havn't decided if we will do a straight axle housing yet. Very likely we will just make a straight axle, people still have to use the knuckles.
