Overview
The RC4WD Blackwell Scale Machined Axle V2 (Front) is a CNC-machined billet aluminum axle assembly for 1/10 scale trail trucks and crawlers, finished in smooth black anodizing for a clean, realistic look.
Inside, hardened steel gears with a 3.76:1 ratio run on full ball bearings and drive 5mm output shafts to 12mm steel wheel hexes, giving you a rugged, serviceable axle for serious scale builds.
Key Features
- CNC-machined billet aluminum axle housing
- Smooth black anodized finish
- Hardened steel ring and pinion gears, 3.76:1 ratio
- Full ball bearings throughout
- 5mm axle output shafts with 12mm steel wheel hexes
Performance Benefits
- Machined aluminum construction resists flex and impact damage on rocks and trails
- Hardened steel gears handle high-torque crawling loads
- Ball bearings keep the driveline smooth and efficient
- Scale machined appearance upgrades the look of any 1/10 build
Usage Notes
- Perform routine maintenance: check the grease around the gears and oil the bearings
- Do not over-tighten screws, as the threads can strip
- Use thread-locking compound sparingly; too much can damage the housing
