JIA do you have one of these inhand?
is so could you get me a dimension?
what do the axles width measure outside of bushing to outside of bushing? if that makes since, just inside the pin holes.
TLTs are about 6.6"

I was talking to one of the guys from Tamiya and he said the axles are all new. They will also be available separately as a kit. So I guess comp rigs could be built using these new axles. The axles have differentials, but can be locked. Probably similar to the way the High-LIft axles do. I can't wait to get mine.

Just found that it's now listed on tamiya's site, as coming soon, with pretty much the same description as here:


http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/ite...oduct-id=58405

If you go deeper into Tamiya's site it also confirms the re-release of the Mitsubishi Pajero. (yay!)

Hey guys...

I just updated the first post with pricing direct from Tamiya.

Check it out.

It's going to me more like $299-$325 based on our pricing released to distribution today. This kit will be available first in the U.S. only for about 4 weeks prior to Japanese or European markets. This was done to ensure the market this product was intended for gets it first. It was also done to prevent gray market imports.

There you have it.

Oh ya, usually you can put planetary gears in series for lower ratios, nice

Were they pretty firm on the April 08 time too? If so, which vendor is going to open up the preorder first? I want one (and a bearing kit if they come with bushings).
