RCTogether - 2024 Rig Rebuild - 2011 Axial Wraith 2.2

This was the original Axial Wraith, it started as a 2.2 'Rock Racer', but I always knew I wanted to crawl with it. It reminded me of the huge solid axle rigs we would see up in the mountains when riding RZR or ATV. They would be the ones slow crawling the boulders that the rest of us just dream about crawling.
Purchase in 2011, I drove it stock for a little bit, but then added the VP parts, overdrive gear, and the castle/tekin combo. It was nice, but still a handful on the rocks, and I could never get the suspension dialed in because I kept focusing on SCX10 builds. Well the castle/tekin combo stopped working and the Wraith just sat there.
No longer is that the case! Now back in action, with new Firma 60a esc with 2100kv sensored brushless motor, and 90mm Desert Lizard shocks. The servo needed an upgrade as well, so that was added. I still like the plastic AR60 housings as they just slide over the rocks.
Hope you all enjoy this overview of the 2024 rebuild of one of my favorite RCs, and up next we may just have to restore one of those SCX10s I was talking about earlier...
