Finally got some video together of my SCX10 with Wraith axles.
For those that missed this project the first time around, here’s a little background on how it got started.

A few action shots, still trying to dial in the suspension

I ended up switching from my hacked OG Honcho body and cage to a fresh semi-full body and cage. I think it looks a lot better now. I also switched to our 72-103mm comp shocks (AX30092). They work better for the high speed rough sections because of the volume of oil they hold compared to stock SCX10 shocks.
Enjoy!!
Will the Wraith axles ever be available like the AX10 axles where in a package. I really want to use them for a Scaler but don’t want to buy a Wraith just to get them.
i havent seen a complet package like that yet but you can get the parts from ckrccrawlers.com
what kind of motor and esc did you use
I am running a Tekin FXR ESC and 35t motor with a 3 cell lipo.
what gearing are you using in it?
I am running a 20t pinion and an 87t spur gear.
How did you mount your shocks at that angle? I have been doing allot of stuff like that.
The rear axle has been moved back quite a bit, and I switched to standard 100mm comp shocks. With the shock towers in the stock position, the rear shocks will be mounted at an angle.
I need the screws that go into the protective spur gear transmission cover . On the outside there are 3 of them . I bought a cover for my SCX10 and they came without the screws .
They are actually 2.5mm self tapping screws if I remember right. But, you can also use 3mm hardware. The M3 screws will go in a little tight, but that is what I use on my rigs.
Thanks Bender!
What suspension links did you use? Im in the middle of mounting wraith axles to my dingo. I could use some help with the link issue. Thanks
I had to piece together some custom links to make this build work. The overall length of the lower rear links is 6 1/4″ to the center of the rod ends. The front lowers measure 5 1/8″. The rear uppers are 6″ long and the front uppers are about 4 1/8″ long.
Thanks bender. I think ill get the aluminum links upgrade set and piece them together to your measurements. That should get me close anyway. I’m glad I can get pretty much anything I need online or at my hobby store. Thanks again for the info.
