Opinions on Vp cvd's ?

[Pabust]

If you can make them:

- Bulletproof (or almost twice+ as strong as Axial universals)
- Affordable (i happily pay $60 for a bulletproof set and more if it's twice as strong as Axial's)
- Available (Axial universals are very hard to get)

I'm in for a set.

Also a no slop locker would be schweeet!

If your going to go do it, go big. 5-6mm stub. I would gladly drill out a wheel to never have to replace a stub.

And no offense to The Violator, but that's a deal breaker for me if the hub diameter is more than 4 mm. Case in point, I love the strength of my Super 300s, but it makes getting suitable hubs (for scalers) a PITA, not to mention I don't like drilling holes in expensive wheels I use on other rigs, as well. Regardless, I don't think that's the failure area anyway so I don't think there's any benefit to the large stub diameter.

My two cents...

we are making 4mm and 5mm, and we will see if 6mm is needed.

When do you guys think you might have these available?

If you want a tester who will give his HONEST opinion, I am sure Steve has my address.

You will see the universals in the universal thread when we make universals

I really wouldnt mind testing a set

[im gunna crawl]

Tom does your statement mean that you will be making u-joint front axles? For the whole axial line?

[tom@vp]

We have made a very substantial investement in a world class screw machine that enables us to make a whole line of products we have been unable to approach before.

We have commited to make a strong presence in the drive train market and axial has its name written all over it.
