Axial SCX10 complete transmission set

Axial’s SCX10 transmission received a design makeover with special attention paid towards aesthetics by mimicking a real transmission with a bell housing, oil pan and a 4×4 transfer case. By sitting the transfer case lower into the chassis and centering the driveshafts with the axle input housings, the designers have created a more efficient driveline with better driveshaft angles which puts less stress on moving parts. Better driveshaft angles coupled with hi-pinion axles IS scale realism backed with performance. Also includes full set of ball bearings and all metal internal gears for strength and durability.
