Zombi Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Guys, when you need to replace the rear shafts on your Wraiths, where do you get the spares from? I've looked around and the only place seemingly with stock in the UK is Wheelspin Models, but they're expensive - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Stock levels of Axial parts in the UK is terrible, have you tried RC Bitz? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombi Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Yeah no joy unfortunately. I've seen some on MRMart for about 11 quid shipped, they'll just take a while to get here. I think that's going to be my best option, and get 2 sets just in case! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.AJ. Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Yea that's probaly your best bet, there is a chap on RCC who makes Ti rear shafts, not sure on the price, but I know the bloke is called Creeper Bob and they meant to be bombproof Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombi Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 Nice one, I'll look him up. In the meantime, if you get wind of any UK stock give me a nudge! Ta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombi Posted January 19, 2015 Author Share Posted January 19, 2015 I have had some stuff off them before, and yeah I couldn't fault them either. I've PM'd Creeper Bob to see how much damage a titanium set of axles would hit me for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombi Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 Ok brace yourself; for the rear titanium AR60 axle from Bob, it's $75 shipped. Not cheap, but i guess you get what you pay for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakes2514 Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Damn.... Think I'll stick with what I have until it breaks ... You getting a set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombi Posted January 22, 2015 Author Share Posted January 22, 2015 Not sure. They're pretty steep, but if the standard shafts keep bending, at Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombi Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 For those that need them, AT now have the axles back in stock and at half the price they sell for here in the UK. http://www.asiatees.com/display?Axial-Wraith-Parts-Hop-Ups&brand=Axial&model=Wraith&id=50337 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 What sort of guarantee do Bobs come with against bending? If he guarantees them to be replaced if you break one, then it's a total no brainer to go with those, you never need worry about buying any again if he replaces broken ones.

Zombi Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 Yeah that'd pretty good, but I doubt he guarantees any such thing to be honest. But i've no idea, ping him on rccrawler and see what he says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oh How Original Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 You'd be surprised, some people are wiling to back their products 100%, especially Ti stuff I don't have a need for them, it was just a thought provoking question more than anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombi Posted February 12, 2015 Author Share Posted February 12, 2015 Well I'm out of the market for AR60 stuff now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
