Brass cover and front steering knuckles

Axial SCX24 Jeep Gladiator · AXI00005V2

This replaces selected front-axle parts with brass components, concentrating extra mass low at the front. It is a crawling setup choice when you want more front-axle weight, allowing for the weight of the original parts being removed.

Installation notes

  • Choose either one front brass cover or the cover-and-knuckles combination. Each AXI302001 package contains one cover; AXI302003 contains a left/right knuckle pair and two ball studs.
  • Use the supplied ball studs and the correct left/right knuckle orientation. Retain the original axle gears, servo and electronics.
  • The cover weighs 6.5g and each knuckle 12.5g before removing the original parts. These are component weights, not the net weight added to the vehicle.
  • Check steering and suspension clearance. Added front-axle mass is a crawling setup choice.
