ssmt axles are for a 1:24 scale size rc car, and will be way too big for 1:64. Plus since they are discontinued for quite some time now if you do find a set it will probably run you about a hundered bucks. Good luck in your search though, be sure to post up pics of your build.

That's not 1/64, it's 1/24 scale, 1/64 scale is the size of a hot wheel or matchbox car. Read the credits at the beginning of the vid it even says 1/24. The ssmt axles are used for 1/24 scale trucks. The first gen ssmt may have been considered 1/43 because they were set up like a monster truck, not a scaler. The F-150 in that vid is a hybrid xmod with ssmt axles. Those first gen axles are very hard to come by now, and are quite expensive when they do show up.

....to the Google page that listed EVERY site available to find your information. Try being a little thankful that he went out of his way to try to help you out, or you might start getting less and less help from the members that put forth the extra effort.
