1/12 scale axle for LCG build

[lagerratrobe]

Hi all,

I'm wanting to build a roughly 1/12 scale LCG and I'm having trouble identifying axles that will work. I've got a set of 1/10 scale Injora portals (way too big) and a set of Injora TRX4M axles (too small). What I'd like is something kinda between those in size.

Would love to hear suggestions and if you happen to have a collection of different axles, what I'm looking for are like short, light duty 1/10 scale from a weight and feel. Maybe 110 to 130mm from end of housing to end of housing.

Thanks, and I know I could just buy MN 168 replacements, or something, but I have some and they are too lightweight.

Element Enduro 12 or an older Associated CR12 would be a good bet.

capra utb18 axles are perfict for 1/12 scale builds

trx4 axles with portal deletes are pretty narrow

boom racing has some i cant remeber the name off hand

you could always cut down ar44s if your good with a Dremel and hack saw


the redcat everest16 or losi mrc clone axles are still available

any smaller and your in the trx4m or assent18 range

MST had axkes on their cmx and cfx that were narrow.

Are you interested in portals or straight as both have been mentioned.

The enduro24, RGT and HSP all have the same axle at 110mm. They also have aftermarket support.

WPL and MN have a heavy version. Can’t find the 2 axle set but here’s the 6x6 version.

Overbuilt but Losi Mini LMT are 130mm I think.

Alright, I picked up 2 Capra UTB18 fronts. Couldn't find any rears to save my life and hope I can do something to adapt one to work in the rear. Either lock the steering, or swap the knuckles, or something. Will see how that works.

Thanks!
