Default New Front Axle Fits B4 And X - 6 Sq.

The new trailing front axle from X Factory solves a problem for both AE B4 drivers and X Factory drivers too!

The standard steel AE kit trailing axle secures the wheel with a nut, and the nut protrudes beyond the wheel, often catching on things. You don't want your nuts to catch on a pipe! Until now, the solution has been the aluminum FT axle, which secures the wheel with a button head screw, but thealuminum axles break and many drivers don't like them.

The new X Factory axle is made of hardened steel by M.I.P. and is center drilled to be light but strong. Of course, the wheel is held on with a button head. And, the axle is held in the hub carrier with a screw, so no more E-clip!

AE drivers and X factory drivers will want to see all the info with pix and a C.A.D. drawing at www.xfactoryrc.com
