SSD RC Front Axle Portal Delete Kit for Traxxas TRX-4 (Black)
About this part
The SSD TRX-4 Front Axle Portal Delete Kit is a CNC machined tuning option that reduces ride height, lowering the center of gravity for improved stability. Plus, by removing the portal boxes the gear reduction is eliminated helping to provide increased top speed.
Features:
- CNC machined aluminum rear lockouts
- Anodized black
- Hardened steel stub axles
- Fits stock TRX-4 rear axle case
- Fits stock TRX-4 rear shafts
- Fits stock TRX-4 hexes
- Reduces the ride height by 13mm
- Lowers center of gravity (CoG)
- Improves stability
- Increases speed
- Track width is reduced by 12mm (6mm each side)
- (2) aluminum 8 degree C hubs (Black) (left, right)
- (2) aluminum 8 degree (Black) (left, right)
- (2) steel stub axles
- (2) 10 x 15 x 4mm bearings
- (2) 6 x 13 x 5mm bearings
- (4) M3 x 10mm screws
- (1) M3 x 14mm screw

Excellent quality kit. Everything fit perfectly and top notch machining and finish. I used these for the full option TRX4 to keep my lockable diffs, rather than a sport where an axle swap is more feasible. Build is for a 69 Blazer body from a stripped 79K5 with 108X38MM narrow tires for scale. The shorter track works perfectly with Treal vintage rims. Biggest difference is the loss of ratio. For a very simple fix the 45T Holmes will get you to near exact stock performance with the stock pinion. I used this for a bit but am switching to the 1200KV Fusion as I've become quite addicted to them, and I need a reason to collect the whole set... For this rig went to much softer springs and 15W oil and strategic weights some higher than normal to get the body to behave like the stock truck it's modeling versus my hoard of typical laden hard core pack rats. Still quite competent and really fun to scoot around on smooth dirt too. Still has some increased torque twist with the motor torque boost and less drivetrain reduction required to slow it back down. But actually looks the part for this particular ol' truck. It's a nice option to get a TRX4 down to normal ride height for a trail-only scale build.
Quality of these knuckles and carriers are very nice. Fitment is nice and tight. Only thing is they give you metal shielded bearings right at the wheels where dirt and water would hit and build up. As far as I can tell, they will fit offset Traxxas 2.2 truggy wheels and some 2.2 buggy and crawler wheels.
