Evening all,

Does anyone know where I can get a complete rear axle from? Like one of these but cheaper http://www.rcrockcra...roducts_id=1032 Only need a rear one and don't want to spend much at all! Don't care what make but must be 1/10th. Even a clodbuster axle or axle setup from a tamiya lunchbox etc

Many Thanks In Advance :)

Greg

hi greg, try axial mate, can be had for around £30 from the u.s tough as old boots too!!

steer clear of rc4wd axles there made from cheese but look good!!

also tamiya tlt axles, maverick scout, axial ax10 or scx10, losi ones may work but there worm drive and no where as reliable as the axial ones.

hope this helps mate, gaz. :thumbsup:

No real plans at the moment, just pricing it up but some kind of scale sand rail type thing which would use a solid axle with scale type suspension hence why I'm posting in the crawler section :P

so you would be looking at brushless then as means of power??

definately go for a axial axle mate, it will take brushless power.

Possibly mate, depends what I can get really cheap.

An axial axle seem to be the cheapest as well so that's a good thing :)

Many Thanks for your help mate, its much appreciated :good:
