WPL C14 Upgrades - Part 1 Metal Axles

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Finally getting around to doing the upgrades to my WPL C14. In this video, I assemble the metal axle kit from WPL.
The Metal Axle Kit I used in this video is currently out of stock and not sure if it will ever be back in stock. Here is a link for an axle kit that is nearly the same kit I used in the video except it doesn't come with grease, thread lock or the center drive shafts: amzn.to/3rZXEF4
Link to purchase the suspension link and shock mount:
Amazon: amzn.to/3Fx0tlY

    Metal axles and a bigger motor are probably the two best upgrades for the WPL trucks.

    I finally destroyed the stock servo transmission within 2 hours of running because it tried to pull the axle ALL THE WAY up on full lock. The axle mount servo upgrade is SICK

    Hmmm not sure what is causing your issue. Only thing I can think of that might be a possibility is maybe theres too many shims in differential.
