This is going to sound weird, but I can't find a left side hub for the rear axle. Has anyone tried a left side hub from exotek? Maybe another brand?

I have the Team Saxo one on my '21. I did have to shave down the portion on the bearing side slightly to make width with the Excelerate tires, but that wasn't terrible to do.

They all work, CRC, Exotek, etc. just the spacing required to get the correct width / axle spacing from the rear axle bearing to the outer edge of the hub will vary. As long as you have available, or order a variety of rear axle shims, especially 1.0, 0.5, and 0.25mm shims, you will be good, and as stated above, some may be a little wider.

I'm running the Exotek rear hubs with the CRC rear axle on my eXcelerate F1. If I still owned an XRAY X1 and needed to replace the axle and/or hubs, I would not replace the axle or hubs with XRAY parts. An XRAY replacement solid axle is $103, left hub $48, for $151 total, while you can buy a CRC axle and two Exotek hubs for $70.

Thanks for confirming! I figured it would just be a spacing issue. It’s so strange that none of the usual online shops that I use have the Xray left side hub in stock. I was originally trying for the Team Saxo diff but that’s out of stock as well.
