This aluminum C hub carrier is offered as a replacement for Axial AX10 Deadbolt platforms and provides a metal alternative to stock plastic carriers. It preserves the factory mounting points and matches Deadbolt steering knuckle geometry without requiring chassis modification.
Installation notes: the carrier replaces the original C hub and installs using the existing wheel hex and axle arrangement typical of AX10 Deadbolt models. Use the same fasteners where appropriate, verify pin alignment prior to final torque to avoid binding, and employ standard hex drivers and a setup stand for alignment checks.
Tuning role: an aluminium carrier increases steering stiffness and delivers a firmer pivot surface, which helps maintain consistent steering feedback and geometry during high-load off-road driving. Builders seeking metal-to-metal mounting choose this part for reliable, repeatable performance.
