This is a set of optional RPM Axle Carriers, and are intended for use with the Traxxas 1/16 E-Revo and 1/16 Slash trucks. There is very little that can be as frustrating on an R/C vehicle as slop in the suspension system. In the case of the 1/16th scale mini E-Revo and mini Slash, there is absolutely no slop adjustment for the suspension pivot balls. Once the axle carriers begin to wear at those balls, the camber, toe and caster angles don’t stay true, causing the vehicle to wander, making it very difficult to control.

That is where RPM steps in. Their 1/16th scale mini E-Revo and mini Slash Axle Carriers have a unique pivot ball retention system that locks the pivot ball in place, yet still allows for adjustment to compensate for wear. This system is based on a cap design, held in place with a pair of small screws. Simply slip the caps in place, tighten the flat head screws until the free play of the pivot ball is eliminated and you’re ready to go!

RPM Axle Carriers have been completely redesigned for added durability and crash-survivability. RPM engineers found that the stock pivot ball opening could be reduced in size to help support the pivot ball better, meaning a significantly lower chance of pulling the ball through the hole. The redesigned overall shape and superior materials that go into the RPM design make them the best alternative at the lowest price available! To top it off, RPM axle carriers are marginally lighter than the stock versions! Designed, manufactured and molded in sunny Southern California, RPM brings pride to the expression “Made in the USA”!

Adjusting the pivot ball is an upgrade from stock. Other than that they are just as bad. Do a few kartwheels and the pivot balls pop out. The wheel bearing holes get hammered out after 20 runs. These were on the back too. GH in front with no problems on 40+ 3s bash runs. Unless you computer balance your wheels and never crash:)

These axle carriers became so loose that the pivot balls would pop-out at the slightest impact. And the bearings never fit snugly and easily spun in the bores. I returned them to RPM and received snide comments by email. No thank you RPM. Poor product and no customer service.
