Not a new idea, but I would like to see AX/SCX10 C hubs become available again.

Here's a good one, UN-Discontinue the VP SSZ Stars! "thumbsup"
Bet They'll get sold out faster than could be made!
Sold my last 2.2 pair with the old rig, was a veryyyyy bad idea.

Do them in natural finish only, or a pre paid Only special order:shock:"thumbsup"
Wraith/xr10 style knuckles/ c's that work with stock style Scx/ax10 cvd's and bolt right on to Scx/ ax10 housings without having to use " beeftoobs "

i want to buy a set. if you made some again i would be in for sure.
Narrowed wraith axle. 20mm to 30mm on the long side and cut between the center section and link mounts. So us shafty guys can run the wraith parts and get the steering without the nasty wide width. Then a servo mount to put the servo in between the link mount and center section length wise kinda like 86jeep style steering for the bergs.

Zero ackerman steering arms with 3 different locations for tie rod/drag link placement. Rather than make 3 different arms, just make one arm with 3 different holes so you don't need to keep them all in stock.
Or simply fix the "racing ackerman" arms you sell for the wraith knuckles so they have zero ackerman, currently they are designed for reverse ackerman and the outside tire turns tighter than the inside tire. This creates scrub on the outside tire and breaks traction easier than both tires turning the same or the inside tire turning tighter. But since the axles have no differential it's mostly a moot point. I just want arms that will allow for lots of steering and not be sloppy doing it.

Reverse ackerman gives you the most steering! With zero (and normal) ackerman the inner wheel limits how much the outer wheel can turn. With reverse ackerman the outer wheel can turn more, and thus the net turning is sharpened.

Wraith centered pumpkin axle housings, smaller pumpkin too.
Portal axle conversion kits for Vanquish Products AX10/SCX10, and Wraith axles.
Smaller axle housings with all the upgrades available for better, higher quality, scale builds. All of the above options too, smaller pumpkin, centered, portals, leaf spring conversions, different models like Dana, Currie, Spidertrax, just to name a few!

How about toe blocks for the EXO buggy with captured pins and a sleeve for the pin

Not sure if it has been mentioned but a Rear centered axle housing with rear shafts made from the same material as your new VVD'S!!!! I want to run a centered rear but would also like to keep it all VP!!! COME ON GUYS!!!
I run these okay narrowed wraith housing and I have the super hd 300's and I currently am getting about 70° and easily could have almost 80° if I wanted to grind on them. With the racing arms my Ackerman was all over the place and it turned like crap. I just flipped one and used button head screws to attach. My servo os mounted like 86 jeep style on a Berg and I use a slightly longer than robotronic arm and it works fantastic.

Hallo there,
I would like to ask you a question about the "OMF 2.2 Scale Rockcrawler Buggy Beadlock wheels"
Could you please let me know the precise inner diameter of these wheels, specifically the inner diameter of the rear ring.
I need this info because I am using some weight systems mounted onto the stock Wraith Knuckles and I have clearance issue with some wheels.
Thanks a lot for your kind reply

Just fyi, Their web site has an e-mail contact form that I've used with good results. They usually answer quickly.

uhh no no no and no.. 8)
The ackerman arms ARE arms with ackermann geometry or as close as the design would allow which is damn close.
they are not zero ackerman because we already make a zero ackermann.
they are not negative ackermann. technically zero ackermann would be a negative ackermann if there is such a term.
they were not intended for 70 degree crawlers. they were intended for higher speed wraiths with limited steering. ackerman geometry has deminishing returns in your application which is why your not getting the results your looking for...
I see a small market for someone to make something, I dont see it happening here ...
good luck ...
