They still fail from time to time but that is alot of stress on them.

Can't wait to see teh end product Linc
The jugg axles are pretty close to scale versions of the MT axles, but I doubt they would take much of a beating. I am gathering parts right now, so I should be able to get some work done on these soon...

The notch will be a weaker area, but hopefull the gussets will add strength where needed...

Yeah, I hope they are somewhat successful... Not sure If I will make duplicates, or not, depends on how easy they are to make!

I would like to see some better pics of how you mounted the links on the x factor axles. I had an x factor a while back, but it was a turd, still have the stock chassis, and shitty tires!
