Hello, i just discovered your work and its awesome, i been in the past very into rc crawler but i had to stop the hobby, after a few years i want to restart from 0 and i love your idea. Do you think it would be possible to make a drive thru axle for a 6x6 conversion ? Or even 8x8 ?

[@RockyTop_BC]

Thanks, I can do some testing. If you remember the old Goldberg monster truck, I was thinking about a 6x6 version. Not an actual copy just the general shape. I will have to design and test the axle first.

@@RockyTop_BC would be great, that bulky shape would look awesome on a truck trial truck. Keep the work on you deserve far more viewers !!

@@willrivers1819 If I could find an open diff that worked with SCX10 axles I would have that option. However a Rock Crawler without Lockable axles would not be very realistic.

I'm not having any luck with this one. Not only does the pinion bind on the ring gear once I tighten everything down but the Front axle shafts and rear axle shafts are going to be spinning in opposite directions with this config

[@RockyTop_BC]

It sounds like the pinion gear is too far inward. Make sure the bearing seat is clean and then make sure the bearings is pressed all the way in. There should be .5mm play in and out. A shim on the outside may also be used to pull the pinion gear outward. Direction issue - If the axle goes the wrong direction it is upside down. Flipping an axle changes the direction of travel.
