here another thing that i don't think was mention./But they included the rear out put housing so if you wanted and i say if you wanted to covert it into a 6x6 .......
Included with the kit but not installed, the AR60 rear output differential cover enables the opportunity to build multi-axle vehicles without costly modifications.
If you've already got a Yeti, Wraith or AX10 with AR60 axles, you can purchase this optional RR10 AR60 Axle Component Set separately: AX31317 which includes link mounts for optional shocks to be installed up front, and mounts for an optional rear sway bar.
Now wonder how long it would take to get shit on for mention this...oh well.
thanks Axial for giving us that option keep up the great work..
Edit:So since they made this an option now it will be easy to convert into a 6x6 and that my next project....
We were first to market with a production AR60 pass through cover. It was released over a month ago
Check out the multi axle builds that are going on right now.

Pretty funny when aftermarket companies make axials stuff before axial [emoji23]. 2sp cough' cough', cover, and I'm sure something I missed. Thanks Helios.

Yeah no offense but I'd personally like to have a molded piece rather than a printed piece for peace of mind. I don't see any 3d printed parts holding up in my opinion as a drive train component.

I'm sure someone will package a complete metal suspension/steering link kit pretty soon. What is it, Yeti rear and Wraith front? Who makes the best suspension links for the Wraith/Yeti? I wonder how much it will twist around with full metal links.

But you are aware that it probably took a lot longer to get this thing molded and done than a month right ;-) 3D printing definitely makes things easy to hit the market first, but we still know how the market goes.
None taken. Even if the laser sintered part is 90% of the strength of the injection molded part, it's still not exactly the same.
Most parts you see out there are done with what's called fused deposition modeling. This is where you melt a string of plastic and squirt it out of what is essentially a hot glue gun. Good for initial prototyping, but layer bonding isn't very good.
With SLA and SLS, there is additional binding between layers so they are a bit better, but not 100% equal to the molded part.
But back on topic, the RR10 is actually an awesome looking truck. We've already put in pre-orders for ours.

I totally agree on this one too. We didn't know they were releasing one and still did ours. It's good to give customers options. You can even get ours in different colors or even metal if you want.
A lot of the stuff in our hobby is niche based and tends to come in waves. It's safer for a company like mine to release parts in this manner than spend $50k (plus or minus) on injection molding tooling. I suppose I could send the file to China and get it done fairly inexpensively, but there isn't the market demand for that right now.

Not sure metal links make anything flex more, but they do hold up a lot better.
Pretty sure Harley confirmed links are wraith front, yeti rear. Shouldn't be hard to put a set together from VP or someone else.
It wasn't me if someone did. I thought the fronts were new possibly. I'd have to check the manual.

I'm not saying it will flex more. The plastic links flex quite a bit at a couple points in the video. I'm just wondering how much (if any) flex there will be with metal links.

I had some suspicion the wheels would be the Yeti Beadlock copy, but they seem to be a glued on variety? I guess I'll be baking off the tires then. No, wait.. we have Voodoo for that "thumbsup" Seems I may be back into a wraith width truck again sooner than I thought!

Cool! "thumbsup"
Leave it up to the Axial army on RCC to hate on you for releasing a cool product! :lmao:
Axial has had the AR60 axles for years and it took them this long to release a pass through cover...

Our printed axles (nylon sintered) are working great... and for years and years of comp abuse, so I'd be open to convincing. The 3D technology is WAY beyond what I have ever expected already, and it's early in this tech... I expect great things from this industry!
That said, part for part over volume the mould process clearly blows the cost of print out of the park, and I do think the current materials are better from injection moulding than they are in sintered printing. I've seen only a few guys actually wear THROUGH a stock SCX or Wraith housing.. and it's been after literal years of daily use. It's strong stuff!
