I just installed one on one side of my front axle, I am seeing significantly more bind through the entire range of steering, although it is smoother over all.
5:31 actually. The CVD I purchased had poorly made pins and it would bind the axle and eventually burned out my motor. Thought it was a screw binding but it was the new axles.
damn,... thats no good. Ive seen people use some red loctite or CA glue on the pins to try and help prevent them from backing out. Even seen some people "ping" them with a small dent.
100% agree. Just ordered a set of Mofo +4 axles with the brass weighted hex extenders. Considered the CVDs but, again, not offered in a +4 version that will accept the brass hex extenders. Not sure why. Not sure they offer much in the way in extra steering angle, but rather reliability than traditional dog bones. Hopefully some smart person will move the hex pin hole and offer these in a +4 that will except the heavy hex extenders before too much longer.... MOFORC, ya listening??
Having issues with the plus cvd axles binding at max turn, still have the rubber oring installed. No bolts causing the binding in c hubs. Do these have a negative effect if clocking axles?
ahh ha so i just bought the Mofo +4mm with extra steering angel, and in the bag theres these to plastic feeling spacer thingS? they fit around the axel but i dont know where they go? and do you or anyone you know have these axel shafts? im going for a off road drifter lol tthats why i want extra steering lol
@@TheShopMiniRC Sorry, I meant the cup the stock dog bone goes in. If the sleeve fit over, it would keep the pin in position, like it does on the CVD. That was what I had in my head anyway. :D
@@wingnutbert9685 sooo, the sleeve fits over the cup, but the dog bone pin is too long to fit into the cup with the sleeve over it. Basically the pin would need ground down.
@@TheShopMiniRC Interestink! :) So probably the CVD pin will be the right length, if it fits. My line of thinking was that folks could just convert their existing stock style if they could just get or make the cups. Though probably a non-issue if the pin can be to stay put. Thanks for giving it a whirl!
CVDs dont give you more angle, they give you smoother rotation while steering is at full lock and have less play. If you want more angle, get Universals.
Great video, thx for your suggestion😀plz remove the o-ring before installing, and our plus length CVD is coming soon. 🤛
Yep! We have removed the o-ring. I am super excited to see the +length axles!!
The different axle length makes me question qc.
I wish someone would sell a cvd and knuckle combo that actually guaranteed better steering radius.
Ty I was mud bogging in the mud and my shaft with the wheel fell out as a whole and the truck nose dived.I appreciate your video.
Hope you got it all fixed!!!
@@TheShopMiniRC Is there a way I can send you my build for the Axial Scx24 C10?
@@chevyb0195 like a list?

I agree, not much improvement over stock, I did get wider ones. But am dealing with drag on drive, and steering. Still looking at ways to improve that
hmmm there are a LOT more options now.
I just installed one on one side of my front axle, I am seeing significantly more bind through the entire range of steering, although it is smoother over all.
I also shaved my axle c’s and see no improvement in steering angle.
be sure to remove the bearings in the axle housing. that will help reduce binding.
@@TheShopMiniRC I will do that, thanks!

yeah.. mostly just steering angle.
I saw you are supposed to remove the o rings to get the max steering angle
I could maybe see that. Might have to try.
My stock scx24 bronco passenger front tire do that holds an tire is a little longer mine to. Maybe that's how they're made. I had to look and see
Odd. They SHOULD be all the same. Lol
Another great vidéo 👍😉 thanks 👍😉
No, no… thank you!!!

Clocking your axles shouldnt matter. They do still have a limitation on turn radius but it should be much better than dog bones.

Probably just spacers to help take out any play or slop.
Does that brass sleeve on the CV fit over the stock dog bone?
Not confidence inspiring when one is odd right out the bag.....
I’ll have to look. Why would you want the brass sleeve over the dog bone.
@@TheShopMiniRC Sorry, I meant the cup the stock dog bone goes in. If the sleeve fit over, it would keep the pin in position, like it does on the CVD. That was what I had in my head anyway. :D
@@wingnutbert9685 I’ll check. Good idea.

They don’t work with ogrc aluminum axle housing. Well the rear are fine but the front is a no go😫
Did you pull the o-ring out?
@@TheShopMiniRC no should I ?
@@Defcon_One1 yeah. The o-ring is mostly there to just keep the cap on until you get them installed so the parts don’t fall out.
@@TheShopMiniRC lol oops ok thank you I’ll give it a try
I'm looking into some CVD
Also check out the Mofo RC cvds. LGRP is also making some soon.
Do you have to remove the bearing from the back of the knuckle
no, it just slides in where the previous c-cup sat.
@@TheShopMiniRC thanks I ended up figuring it out I was having trouble getting the end of the cvd into the gear
Hello from southeast alaska do you have any stickers for my rock crawlers remote control?
Sorry, I don’t have any stickers yet.
@@TheShopMiniRC kk I'm still watching your video. Good info sofar

yes, good point.
