Overview
Get the best of both worlds — high top speed AND low-end crawling torque — with the Hot Racing 2-Speed Heavy-Duty Full Metal Gear Locked Center Transmission for the Axial Wraith and AX10. This complete pre-assembled transmission unit replaces the stock single-speed gearbox with a full metal 2-speed system featuring a heavy-duty 32-pitch 57-tooth steel main spur gear, steel internal gears, fully sealed ball bearings, and a long output shaft for direct compatibility with Axial driveshafts.
The 2-speed design gives you a 15% taller top gear for noticeably higher trail speed, plus a 15% shorter low gear for more crawling torque on technical lines and steep climbs — without sacrificing the reliability of a fully sealed, all-metal drivetrain. It's the ultimate transmission upgrade for serious Wraith and AX10 owners.
