New idea thread?

I'd personally like to see the center section from the ax10 housing to build some custom axles. I appreciate how incredible the rockjock housings look, I'm just not a fan of the slanted diffy cover. I know that they won't do what I'm asking for, so it's just wish. "thumbsup"
Have you seen what Carterfab does?
This can be done for you...
 
This is interesting...
What is wrong in this picture? . LoL

SCX width rear Fabricated 9" housing.... Centered or offset, I don't care.

all they need to do is make a 9" race pumpkin that uses the existing tubes then you can make it wraith width or scx10 width.

Should make a lil licensed camburg 9" and some camburg trailing arms.

I didn't think about using existing tubes....would be even better.

Shoot, they got Currie licensing for the Rock Jocks, wouldnt be hard to do their 9" too

Both of you guys have the same ideas I've been thinking since the rock jocks came out. They would just have to figure out away to load the gear set from the yoke side
 
not hard at all. with the cnc ability of vanquish no problem you just build the pumpkin in 2 pieces like the real one with the bearing caps holding the locker and pinion gear into the front piece and then just screw it into the housing already built from the front side. then you build your tubes with the shafts in them and the hexes installed like you do already for the currie and slide the tubes into the pumkin and align the shafts with the locker and set screw the tubes down. Only thing you loose is the ability to use the set screw on the locker to the axle shaft but I don't even run my vanquish locker with the set screws anyway. The tolerances are so good on the currie that there isn't any play in the shafts.

actually probably would be the easiest housing for them cause of all the flat sides pretty easy to do.

actually now that I think about it they could make a lil red inspection/fill cap like the real one and you could get an allen in their to tighten the set screws.

I think a one piece machined housing would look the best, especially when they can machine the truss on the backside of the axle. Wouldnt be cheap, but man would it look good

the front half of the pumpkin still needs to be a two piece so it works and looks like the real one.

lol sorry, wasnt too clear in the wording. I meant machine the whole axle housing, but allow the use of a 3rd member for the ring and pinion.
 
^^^^^^^ What these dudes said. .. please Vanquish something with a true 3rd member (preferably Currie) ??"thumbsup"
 
CSM and pan hard bars for the 12 inch wheel base. For us G6 and Deadbolt drivers. Maybe a full link kit for currie set up.
 
I mean yeah I do because I keep breaking the axial universals in seconds. And like the scale look. Ctm is just a brand like snap-on or rigid are just a brand. But ctm joints and axles are the best.
