  • In this video I install and review the new complete axle housings for the Axial SCX24 by Meus Racing! These feature a three-piece isokinetic CVD front axle shaft which provides smooth action at up to 52 degrees of steering angle! The kit includes a new servo mount, stainless steel steering linkage, extra overdrive gears, and all necessary hardware! At $89.99, these are a great option if you're looking for an upgraded set of axles for your SCX24!

      True, but they made it happen, and apparently did it to good effect. Some times innovation is just applying current tech to new applications. Still very cool.

    I'm looking for a front MEUS axle, but i want full steering angle, so i remove sliders and also front shocks to make room for the wheel. I'm only worried about the long term durability of that double u joints. Maybe i get one set this month and try it out.
