So as things typically go...I start out running my Wraith in a somewhat reasonable manner...but then as time goes on I find myself at full throttle more often than not. Long story shorter...went crawling here locally with some other guys and at the end I decided to jump the Wraith off the top of the rock covered bank towards the parking lot...and then... :twisted:

I'm ready to do it again...just gotta find a shaft to replace this one...it broke right at the hex pin hole :roll:

Watching you drive it like you did and all that happened was this makes me want to put some VP axles under my wraith chassis with a bullet proof transmission. It has been a while since I had a good basher.

Here's the shaft...broke right at the hex pin hole...weakest part of course :roll:

here is what I've been working on lately. Thanks for all the help some of you have given me. It's a Mattzilla chassis. I've never worked on an SCX chassis before. So here goes:
Ar60 axles w/HR lockers HD gears, axial universals,
with VP chubs, knuckles, lockouts in red,ARB diff covers.
Mayham Eng. wheels w/rok locs.
All Vp steering,tie rod,panhard kit.
All VP Ti links.
Vp trans case w/RRP gears. Had the lower one piece gear drilled so I could run Traxxas screw pins.
RRP wraith metal 80t spur/slipper.
MIP drive shafts.
Tekin Pro4 w/20t pinion.
Going to use a MMP speed control.
CLAW winch.
Haven't decided on 2s or 3s yet!
OK here are some picks:

In the process of checking my Wraith out before tomorrow morning's run to Poinsett I found out why my drivetrain was binding. Evidently mine and Derricks antics at Nats took their toll on the motor plate :twisted:

Luckily enough I won an Axial machined motor plate (AX30860) during the raffle at Nats...go figure :roll:

All done with my axle just have to tidy up the steering links and put it on my mini ss rockshow. My final width is 7.5 inches and I am using the stock xr wheel hexes at this width but I opened up a set of losi mrc hexes for it so that I could make it whatever width I want over the 7.5 inches.

the difference in the wheel hex width

I also had the traxxas overdrive mod and put it in the axle while i was assembling this axle so I cant wait to test it out against my daughters stock mrc to see how it does on turning radius!

Where I milled out the spokes, do you think they will be too weak
