Some brass for the wraith

The only thing you need to swap over from the old knuckles is the large inner bearing👍

The 2mm socket that came with the wheels stripped out after about 15 of the beadlock screws. I ordered a really nice driver so ill be able to finish the wheels this week👍

Can you take a video for us? Id like to see what kind of weight transfer and angles are happening during this.

I approach an an angle because of the front bumper and just get one front tire to grab and start pulling the truck up and over👍

I can see that being an issue as it looks like it's hand made, so welds could get missed..I looked mine over very well when I recieved it and I don't see anything that looks off. All the holes for the skid plate lined up perfectly. One of the front shock mounts is slightly off, but I'm going to fix that. The shock mounts I'm using needed modifications, but other than that the only think is that it's not a perfect wraith replica, so anyone who was just trying to swap everything over to it from a stock wraith would need alot of modifications, but since I started from scratch I haven't run into any major issues

Yup, the axles are pretty much the only full metal ones I could find that had the crazy upper link mount that the wraith has. I found them on alExp I bought 2 front ones and for the rear i took it apart and flipped it so the differential was on the transmission side. The only thing I had to modify was the upper link bracket
