  • Winter Project / Wraith Build

    So a while back I picked up an Axial Wraith because they are awesome and I can take it wheeling with me and when someone pulls an Villa and blows all 4 balljoints and even more u-joints on the trail, I can break it out and go wheeling if I cannot lend a hand. I got it before the winter cold set in, so I was able to flog it against some rocks when it was stock, in fact, I ran the entire length of Mabell with it.

    Well, this winter I got bored and decided to throw a lot of money at it because that's what I do. At first, there were necessary upgrades; aluminum control arms, savox steering servo, aluminum pitman arm and a Castle BEC. Then recently, I got stupid; full aluminum front and rear axles and a lightbar.

    Aluminum knuckles, axle and Axial u-joint axle shafts.








    Probably before I head out to KOH I'm going to upgrade the shocks in it and other odds and ends. I have a new skin for it on order, one that I designed, so that will hopefully come before KOH as well. I just can't wait for the weather to get warmer, finish this thing up and do some wheeling with it.

        looks good, those things are still so sweet.
        No worries, I'm not actually back, I'm just reminiscing about the old days.

                              At least it's cheaper to fix.
