UE =
Unlimited Engineering: It's hard to tell someone just how bad-ass UE is, but I will do my best...UE is a small shop/business owned and run by Robin Oury. He designs and builds the best, and I literally mean the absolute best, products for Traxxas Maxx trucks. He uses only the best materials & equipment, and has the best ideas & designs that have ever come out of a human brain. UE makes full chassis kits, full suspension kits which reengineer the suspension for perfect, 2nd to none handling, the strongest CVD's available, the best differential & diff-case setup ever (6/8-spider+Ultralites), which is only eclipsed by the VBS (Victory Bulkless System), which he also makes, the absolute best steering-system & bell-crank servo-saver ever, some very sick wheels, shock towers, chassis extensions (mono-block), set-back & high-impact design a-arms, turnbuckles, hinge-pins, Super-Shocks, skid-plates, everything...there is nothing better, seriously.
Dace =
Dace Manufacturing: Dace Mfg. is another maker of some of the best parts available, for Maxx trucks and tons of other vehicles as well. A venture between UE and Dace resulted in the greatest small-block chassis ever designed/built for the T-Maxx...the dUEce Predator! The other very well-known Dace items are their nickel-plated parts; bulkheads, chassis, shock-towers, servo-mounts, upper & lower a-arms, and other nickel parts. Dace also makes the very best 23mm hex-adapters in the Universe...they fit over your existing 14mm hex, which is stronger and better than attaching to the axle via the cross-pin. The UE CVD's don't have a cross-pin to lock the hexes, the axle is hexed, allowing a hexed/keyed 14mm hex to lock onto the axle without a cross-pin. The reason is because the hole drilled through the axle makes it very weak, and the UE CVD's are the strongest made because they don't have a cross-pin hole drilled in the axles...because of this, none of the existing 23mm hex-adapters would work on a UE CVD, so Dace designed and built one that would. The cool thing, is, the Dace 23mm hex-adapters work on any CVD that has a 14mm hex on it. Dace makes many other parts, but I don't have room or time to list everything UE and Dace make.
