She took a good beating man that was some hard hits and the axles tuff as nails

Exocaged Style Ryft Beatdown ! Those axles are beautiful.

That's what I call a beatdown. Exo Jo's put a whoopin on the ryft... lol love it. Keep em coming.

Looks to be Vitavons normal high quality. Seems like you deal with Vitavon as much as I do if not more Joe. It’s great cause I know you’ll show us the quality of the new products that I personally want to see. Sometimes I have the part before you but you always run it before I do so it’s great to get to see how it plays. BEAUTIFUL!!!

I came around to try some stuff from Vitavon, they are really well crafted pieces, tolerances are spot on.

Now THAT was a Proper Testing of those Axles. Was kind of surprised the rims survived a couple of those side landings.

In my opinion, yours is the best set-up I've seen so far. Those housings will handle all the 4s power you can put trough'em now. The choice of running a Castle/Holmes system is the best change, control-wise, I've seen. You need an excuse to get a raw 500 or 777 now. That thing is awesome, bubba.

I’ve got a raw 500 in the Lasernut that’s coming out and going in this. I got the Reefs 400sc servo that will go in the lasernut to replace that. I can’t see this needing a 777 for what I plan to do with it.

Been waiting for this. Thanks bro. ❤️👊😌

Every time I hear Vitavon I think about those awesome Capra's you've built. I have all of them and enjoy them all. "MY Man" Exo.....👍

Like how he chuckles, so happy, with the new axels😅👍🏼

Those are really beautiful as well as being robustly engineered. I wish I had installed a servo wire extension as you did when I changed out my Bombers servo. It would have saved me considerable time if I ever again need to change it. In just under two years I've gone from 'God, I hope I never need to take this thing apart' to 'Next time I dig into this thing I'm going to........'

Thanks for all the knowledge 😊 I will do the vitavon axles next after I break these axles but for now all I've had to do is add a copper shim in the front differential spool gear housing that came out of a brake caliper hose and brake caliper for a 1:1 scale vehicle 😂 to compress all the gears closer together 😊and I added high temp wheel bearing grease and after that I did nothing to the rear diff. So now I kinda have a front over drive but still have an open differential 😉

Yeah I hope to fit them. The SLW hubs aren’t compatable with the 8mm wheel nut and sockets to bolt on but I think I have a way to get them on.

Do the cutouts around the servo (on the Vitavon front axle) allow the servo to fit through the mount without disconnecting the servo wire?

It looks like you could swap those sway bars around so they flip to the inside rather than sticking out. Then you wouldn't have to worry with buying straight arms. I need to get his trx4 axles

@@ExocagedRC I don't think I explained what I was trying to say very well. But you know how the top link that connects to the piano wire is straight for a few mm then it gets wider?
