Need Leasons about Axle Types

[CG Bob]

George,

I built the Dean's Marine 1:10th scale DUKW a few years ago. I used Robbe axle kits and made my DUKW full time 6 wheel drive. I originally used some Robart 4" diameter diamond tread airplane tires. I recently purchased some DUKW tires and rims from RC4WD, and have started installing them on the DUKW.

Hi CG Bob

Thank You for the tips, I have read your posts on this subject before and to be honest you are the inspiration for this build, that`s what I tell my family, so they blame you.

I can`t afford the axles from robbe so I have to look for U.S/Canada sources BUT I was also leaning towards the DUKW Tires as well. Wish I had the money but will have to look elsewhere for the axles. I don`t think WWII vehicles had locked axles that`s why I ask about open/unlocked brand name axles. Maybe there is some used ones on the market? I am in No rush.

Thanks Again for the tips and pictures.

George
