[John Mesa (FishMaxx)]

It seems to be the same basic as the others posted so far, but with a diffrent box and finish on the parts.

This one has a silver textured finish

Ok you've got my attention! Is there a US supplier for these? I found the Euro Site. What was the price shipped if you got your from overseas? Also what's your thoughts of it with the GC2?

No need to go overseas! Lots of vendors sell them in the US. However most places that have them currently on backorder:mad:

The Crawler Store sells the axles only for $240.00

Also what's your thoughts of it with the GC2?
I figured it was good enough for Austin to win ECC08, so it should be good enough for me to start with as a baseline How ever since the GC2 was designed for shaft driven AX10's there are a few things that could be approved upon. One is the lack of upper link mounting hole options

Notice the extender plate I added.

Cool thanks for the info. I may have to look into a set of the axles for my next cralwer. I'm loving the Axial based GC2 right now.

Jason you won't be disappointed in the Berg axles. The all metal construction makes them beefy.

How do you like the OTA steering? Does it give you the same turning radius as the conventional sttering?

Thanks!
Alan

[John Mesa (FishMaxx)]

I have not done any turn testing, but it goes lock to lock. I assume steering is the same.

[John Mesa (FishMaxx)]

A few updates...

The GC2 worked awesome, but switched over to a Kamikazi Kustom's Zero because it had more shock and upper link holes because it didn't need to accommodate a tranny.

The body is one of the new J Concepts bodies. Its more roll-over friendly than alot of the other choice out there
