looks pretty clean for a used crawler let me know what you think

Great platform! Nice flex - cool looking rig, man!

 

[dblrnut]

get a delrin skidplate and clock the axle's and she'll crawl better

What does it mean to clock the axles

 

[h8z2luze]

I have never heard of anyone clocking ax-10 axles... MOA guys do it to bring the motors up off the ground a little for more clearance. I mean I guess you could clock the ax-10 axles so the outputs have more clearance but I haven't heard of anyone doing that.

Looks like there is a few upgrades on there. The most important imo is the MIP drivelines. I would get a set of rovers or lepoards and put on there. I agree with the delrin skid. The EEM dual triangulation skid is the best one imo for the stock chassis. Here is a link to it.

Check out the other hop up parts EEM offers too.


Oh just fyi its a axial ax-10 the XC-1 is the name of that specific body. Ya I know its confusing lol.

Yeah pick up a EEM skid for sure. Clocking axial axles you just basically space the upper links wich rolls the axle up, I wouldnt recomend doing it personally, atleast not much and you would only do it on the rear cuz if you did the front then you change the steering angle.

I clocked both used the 6mm spacer on upper links the steering does suffer some but i dont notice much cause of cvd in front and underdrive gears in the rear. the shafts took to much of a beating before but now i have to got bta to get the steering links out of the way but man can it climb. oh and fyi you can get an mfm blackwidow chassis with delrin skid and delrin lower links for 40 bucks

yea i know that the xc1 is only a body and that its the same as the ax10 but thanks for all the other info i just ordered the derlin skid oh by the way whats does this me again sorry I'm new at the crawling thing "The most important imo is the MIP drivelines. I would get a set of rovers or lepoards and put on there."

cvd= http://www.tcscrawlers.com/MIP-CVD-...Axial-AX10-Scorpion-4-each-08100-p-16873.html for better steering
leopards= http://www.tcscrawlers.com/MIP-CVD-...Axial-AX10-Scorpion-4-each-08100-p-16873.html great tires

rovers are another brand of tires that are also quite good

Also you only want to clock the rear axle just enough to get the pinion angle to follow the angle of the lower links so it is out of the way and not getting hung up on things.
