Just got mine installed. Nice product Logan!
When I first saw this I knew I had to have one, so I put in an order. Install was simple enough, especially if you are familiar with 3 link setup already. Performance is great, geometry is good, and I don’t think there will be any breakage issues unless launching off cliffs😉
Good job WDW, great to see new things being designed and produced, keep it up 😎
Hey thanks so much for the feedback! Yes these should be plenty durable especially in the new Stainless option.
@@westdesertwheeler2666 hey Logan i want one of your 3 link kits but your site has no PayPal support. Can I purchase another way?
@@westdesertwheeler2666about how long she take to ship. I ordered mine yesterday and have already built everything up besides the supplied parts 😂 just curious. Been here since the first 2k subs. I Capra swapped my wraith and kept cms. Lmk if I should show a video
This is awesome! Genius really 💯👌🏻
Just got mine, can't wait to get it installed.
I'm gonna have to pick one of these up. I just so happen to have a Capra cage and straight axle conversion on my bench! Setup looks great Logan!!
Thanks for the very detailed walk through. I'm looking to purchase a Capra and will definitely get your Servo Mount kit.
Great job man. Thank you for your dedication to the hobby and the community. 🤙
Nice!!! Now I have i instructions!!!!👍👍👍 Logan it is a piece of art. The quality is top notch!!!!
Hey Logan, will the conversation work with the portals?
It should there will just be small adjustments you might need to make like panhard length or pinion angle
That milwaukee is almost as nice as that stash my man 😉😂
This conversion more for compitition than just out playing? I love the portal axils added ground clearance .
Will a flat center skid plate need to have the interear removed to give room for motor and trans to move up? What all is needed to use the flat center skid plate?
Oh ya, I would lose my 4ws. I better just get some better tires and do this on my Capra once I roll it off too many dropoffs. Good stuff Logan. Going to order this so I have it.
I sold my Capra this year and bought a gladiator. The stockish Capra never really grew on me except for that it has a cage and I really love the axles.
This straight axle conversion that narrows it down changes the whole look in a good way. It’s more like a 1.9 wraith style vehicle/buggy which I really like.
I may just pick up a 4ws Capra and a scx10.2 to make it happen. I’ll finally have some capra axles for a new build as well.
Thanks dude! Love your channel.
I spotted a Bugout. Nice!
Unique product and great idea for people converting to straight axles! Well explained video, nicely done! I hope to see more of these technical videos, really helpful. As for the conversion, am I limited now in available shock positions for the front end and does that not raise my front end slightly?
Not enough of a difference to notice or matter
What you doing for gearing. Capra trans was geared pretty high for portals. With the straight axles it would be way high
Hi LOGON this product is amazing GREAT idea buddy.
🇬🇧🇺🇲🕊️✌🏼🤩👍🏼🤙🏼
Mike email me WestDesertWheeler at gmail and we will see about sending you one
Do think TRX4 axles would clear everything?
Good video man. Like button selected algorithms agitated.
I want a Capra just do do this swap!
Has anyone used his product with ar45 portal axles?
Think I’m gonna have to get one even if I don’t convert my Capra I still want a piece of rc history
Wanting to get the wheel steer, version
Congrats! Now my Capra chassis has a purpose again! 👍🏼
Sweet!
where can i purchase one of those Chassis servo mount ?
westdesertwheeler.com/
How can i get this? Im from Malaysia.
Why don't they put straight axels on the Capra to begin with? Do they make the Capra that much better? I am still looking for tires and rims for my rtr.
Hey man, do you make a panhard attachment for the VP capra offset F9'S? I've bought a couple but they're made for stock capra axles. Thanks man
I make the chassis side mount. I don’t offer any parts for the axle side
I just ordered a 4WD Capra... I'm wondering why switch to straight axles? I see there are metal axles available; seems like those might be a better choice. For the 4WS model, doesn't that require two front axles?
What exactly is the benefit of straight axles and a panhard setup?
You can steal the Capra axles for other things. Also they are surprisingly capable this way
My steering link from the servo to knuckle is like 7 or 8mm to long. Am I missing something?
The servo horn does not sit perfectly vertical. It will sit offset but it will still get full range of motion
So would this work with the element ecto axles with the front steering on the backside of the axle? I have everything to swap them over. Just waiting on feedback before i order your part! Im super excited
I have not personally done that, I don’t know anyone who has. You could try…
@@westdesertwheeler2666 we ran with it! Ordered tonight. Will keep ya posted haha
@@westdesertwheeler2666 happy to report back with a successful install with the element axles. Had to use some different rod ends along the way. But works great! Thank you for making a awesome part 🙏🏼
I saw your 3 link Capra at proline by the fire. I wanted to ask you what size pinion and spur are you running or would recommend. I’m trying to duplicate this same Capra build. I have a fusion pro 2300kv and 3 gear transmission as well as your Servo mount kit.
I believe I’m using a 13t pinion with standard 56 spur. Same setup as a 10.2 with straight axles my car has a 2800kv axe so it’s pretty zippy
Thanks for the info. 🙏🏾
Ok.....so I'm looking to swap axles from my 10iii and capra.....so I will be using the portal axles still on the capra,just narrow....will the install be the same????
Very similar, this kit will work
@@westdesertwheeler2666 that's good...I placed my order last night.....great product to fill a void in the market....
Where can your product be bought. Looks like a quality product
WestDesertWheeler.com
Just to ask…putting the front shocks in the rear most hole to lay it down causes binding or clearance issues?
No, I used that for mounting the rear of the bracket so there is a screw in the rear mount
Understood. Thanks for the reply
What are your thoughts on capra axles on a gatekeeper
Done it a few times. Fun project
@@westdesertwheeler2666 anything special I need other than the axels
Wow building a race car?
why would you want to do this to a capra?
In a word. Why? Low CG but loose clearance. Takes the scale look away.
So you can rob the axles and keep it running with readily available 3 link axles
HI LOGON PLEASE ILL PAY WHAT EVER IT COSTS PLUS A GOOD DRINK FOR U SIR IF I COULD GET THIS GREAT PRODUCT SENT TO ME IN ENGLAND. AS LONG AS A GIFT NOT PURCHASED 😉 NOT A PROBLEM 🇬🇧🇺🇲🕊️✌🏼
How did you get the interior to fit over the ax10 trans?
Is it 100% necessary to do this conversion? I just bought a 4WS Capra and really cant see myself spending another $170 on the straight axle kit and another $40 for your kit.
I’m not saying this is better than a 4 wheel steer Capra axle setup. This is for people who want to have the rig still function after taking the axles off the car and using them somewhere else. Straight axle kits commonly go on sale for 99$
@@westdesertwheeler2666 Gotcha! I really appreciate your response! Also love the consistent content you put out. Cheers Logan
