    Well, that should help bring the weight closer to the ground... But there would be some roll center changes too (the links will have different angles). So it should handle a little different in comparison to the portal axle equipped model, and I'm not just talking about having more snags from the reduced ground to axle clearance.

    Matt, would this axle kit fit on a scxii without any modifications?

  • @DetroitDiesel671

    I'd be interested to see comparison tests between sintered gears and machine cut gears (hardness tests, destructive running tests). For my VS4-10 Ultra, I bought the upgrade machined gear set for the VFD transmission, because the portal axles came with machined gears and I have a bit of OCD... All sintered or all machined, but a mix is annoying for some reason. Anyway, I hear a lot of negativity toward sintered gears and people spending money to upgrade, but is that money well spent? Sintered gears are VERY durable, literally ALL cordless power tools use them. Milwaukee, DeWalt, Porter Cable, Bosch, and even Hilti, and when these tools wear out, it's the bearings, motors, and electronics that generally fail, not the gears.

    Wanted to ask on this video cause close to what I have. I just bought a scx10 III Early bronco rtr. This looks to have this kit on it basically. With in a few minutes of running in my house the front driveshaft popped apart. Has axial made a legit fix for this?? For now I put foam inside to keep center piece more in place. Thinking aftermarket driveshafts just wanted to keep it stock. Any info would be awesome thank you

      The Axial Wildboar driveshafts are pretty much the best plastic shaft on the market. Perhaps it got bound up somehow? If you’re not a fan, I recommend the Incision replacement metal driveshafts from Vanquish Products. Thanks for watching!

    Hey Matt, I have a VS4-10 chassis, 90mm DL shocks, and these straight axles. I two have questions. 1: What transmission should I use? 2: Will Wraith high clearance links work with this setup?

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  ปีที่แล้ว

      Why not use a VFD? Sort of made for it! Wraith link geometry isn't something I specialize in. Try it and see!

      @@scalebuildersguild from one Matt to another, thank you. I've been thinking that with a Fusion Pro 2n1. I'll give the links a whirl when I get them, if they don't work, I'll still have a set of green anodized links to use on something.
      Also, remember this: 2 Rons don't make a right, the same way 2 Matts don't make a floor. 😜

    Would the 2 speed work better cause of less reduction

    • @scalebuildersguild
      @scalebuildersguild  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, the reduction is applied at the transmission instead of the axle. Same ratios.

      I'm guessing these would be the Capra's shock at 98mm with perhaps a different rod end to make 100mm.
      So great shock, no leaks for me built with green slime. And silky smooth.
