looks good man. ive done the same. im waiting on my delrin skid though...looks alot cleaner. thats one of the best changes that ive done to my creeper. makes just doint maitnece stuff so much easier and lower your cog a little bit. may want to look into some integy drive shafts...also you can get a dna dig on this site for $35....i ordered 2, one for my creeper and another for back up...

I think the biggest difference would be size. I was thinking about the RC4wd R2.. But that Axial one looks great in there. The Axial skid gives better ground clearance. My friend did the Axial skid with the R2 and it rocks . How much did the Axial Trans cost??

did the ax10 trans come complete or did you have to buy a spur gear,,other parts,, to bolt it in and make it work. all the ads ive seen for the ax10 locked trans shows it with out a spur gear or gear mount/slipper mount, meaning you buy the trans and a spur gear and the gear flange for the primary input shaft. |

the axial skid plate is only a couple of mm wider. the dna dig is here http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/showthread.php?t=204553. buy a couple of them, one for your rig and one as back up. last weekend mine went out after a months of use but i think a glitching radio system started the problem (which i recently fixed). the reason i say to pick up a couple is that due to dna is no longer in busness, damn stupid economy  | |
