Currie Portal F9 Rear Axle, Clear Anodized: Axial SCX10-II
Currie Portal F9 Rear Axle, Clear Anodized: Axial SCX10-II
Currie F9 Portal Rear Axle for SCX10-II based vehicles.
Overview
The F9 Portal axles create extreme amounts of ground clearance under the center of your axle, increasing the clearance by 1/2"+ (13mm). This provides the equivalent of a tire over 1 inch taller than what is on your vehicle. The advantage of the Vanquish Currie F9 Portals is the gear reduction inside the portal (1.67:1) which can be adjusted with optional gear sets (1.4:1 Overdrive*). By adding reduction at the portal, less torque is transferred through the other upstream components in the drivetrain. These axles are a direct replacement to any Axial AR44 axle, using all stock links. These axles come with all parts needed to assemble a full rear axle. Requires the use of a 350 SLW hub or greater on Vanquish 1.9 wheels, Incision wheels will require a #4 or greater. Other wheel manufacturers offsets will vary. Axles must be used in pairs, you cannot run a front portal axle without a rear and vice versa. Overdrive gear sets are recommended for use in the front axle only.
