My god that thing is bad a$$!!!!
you have any idea what it's going to cost?

If the lower link/shock mounts were built in it'd be damn near perfect. Wish I didn't already have a centered Currie...

Nice looking piece!! Just out of curiosity, why switch to the centered pumpkin? Less torque twist one way or another? Thanks

Building them in increases the price quite a bit. Also leaves them less universal to better link geometry. I think this is perfect for all intended users.

Scale realism would be one reason. Jeeps and trucks tend to have centered rear axles, not offset. Though heavily modded rigs use whatever they want.

Also it puts the transfer case/transmission in a straight line, reducing the driveshaft angles.

I haven't had any desire to buy parts for my Wraith in months.... I will buy this.

I assume this was done to help shave some costs(yeah!), and to help fixturing. just my guesses though.

looks, angles, performance, symmetry, and something different. I personally prefer centered.

next up we need an SCX version for 1.9 wraiths"thumbsup"

there is another version in the works. well see if a SCX version is in the future : xfingers:

US retail price is 110 USD.

Does SSD make a matching front housing too (not centered)? I looked at there site but didnt see anything..

 

[R6MAXX]

84yoda according to this thread - http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/general-crawlers/535175-ssd-new-wraith-axle-housing.html on offset front axle will be coming out

 

[84yoda]

Sweet, thanks for the link R6. Hope its soon. Glad i haven't got vp v2 or curries yet...

 

[kingfuzz]

I want these. I have some of their wheels and couldnt be happier!!

 

[KRAWLR4life]

This will DEFINITELY change the game up, very nice work SSD! The price is very nice too!

 

[84yoda]

Price is awesome, front will probably be a little more but oh well. I just wonder how the drop out 3rd member is goin to work out. Super nice bein able to pop 4 bolts out and cover is off but with 3rd member, have few more bolts and take off driveshaft cup every time.

But either way, that housing is a work of art.

 

[RacinRevo]

Nice looking axle for sure!!!

 

[SkaldidDog]

Them's pretty darn cool no doubt.

[CamaroTom]

Will this work on the yeti also?

 

[altd896]

Will this work on the yeti also?

Yes, Yeti & Wraith rear axles are identical, if this works on a Wraith it'll work on a Yeti.

Possibly want to hold off rushing in though, looks like SSD will in future do a wide version to suit the Yeti so you don't have to run huge offest slw hubs
