RPM Revo axle carriers any good?

Yeah, the crash did rip out the carrier, so I am going to have to replace it anyhow. Cost isn't that important for me, as long as it will be more durable (which is what matters for me). They have bigger bearings as well, which is only a good thing, so maybe I will get them.

thanks!

I know there is an alu set that many of the racers on the TRX forum use. RD Logics? tho i think its some other "R" name. Search it there maybe.

The only complaint I remem about the RPM ones it the tendency of the pillow balls to rip out of the plastic, thus many racers use alu in the fronts. I having had any probs w/ the stock size bearings in mine, my Emaxx ones used to grenade fairly quickly tho.
