Default Front engine Rear or 4wd

OK I am looking to do a more realilistic Xmod and I was wandering does any one know if somebody can make live axels for the Xmod. I would like to do 4wd but Rear wheel drive would be just fine I have a 65 stang that could look wicked with that set up. SO if any one knows where to fid this small wonder. let me know. Thanks ~mj

No, I will make the frame, I want live axels like those that you would see on a truck or a old muscle car. Just scaled down to fith the Xmod. I also would like to have a set of then for a truck I want to do. but the 4wd aspect might be trickier.

Why would you put this on an xmod chassis? if you find a scale axel. I would suggest building a custom chassis. because putting it and modding an xmod chassis is not easy...

C1V1C, That is 100% what I am looking for. Did you make them? Those would be perfect beond perfect for what I want to do.

MeMe, I plan to use my own chassie for this. I have a perfect chassie already done for 2 cars and a truck, I just need the axels for them. Granted all 3 are more show than go but I still want them to work.

Yeah i"ve made them, the front never been completed, the rear is still has it is right now.

You can go ahead and make your own too you know It is worth a try.

But i'll see if i can make you A rear axle, not the front, too complicated yet.
but i dont promise anything eh.

Btw, Just wondering were do you live?

I would make my own but I am just not that talented. But even just a rear would be great for this 1949 Merc club Coupe that I have. I plan to use a Hi-tourq motor in the front with a small 2 speed gear box behind it. Just let me know how much. Now one thing keep in mind The car is going to be a di-cast car so it will be heavy. Btw, How did you make them?

ooo die-cast body, the gears won't live for long.

but i've used gen1 inner gear diffs, some kind of plastic straw tubing and some gen1 parts. Wish i could get some brass tubing were i live.

I might do one rear axle for you out of evo gear and bevel. Should be stronger.
