Default Redcat Gen7 Axles

I've had my redcat for about 6 months now! It's been a lot of fun. However I feel that its crawling ability could be improved with new axles. Mine just get caught on everything that I try to crawl. I just recently extended the wheel base by about an inch. Anyway, just wondering what axles have y'all put on the gen7 and the pros and cons you have found! I was think trx4 with portals! But have considered the redcat v2 axles with portals. Thank you all in advance!

I had kinda thought about those ones before. Those would be much first option if I decide to go no portals. The problem I have now is that the pumpkins on the axles are so big that I get caught one everything.

it comes down to your terrain and driving style

from building both trx4 axles and gen8 axles is basicly the gen8s are cheaper to build but have less available options

the trx4 are more exspensive and have a better aftermarket and more options like unlocking diffs but you pay out the back side for it if you choose to run locking diffs
