What's the story on the hubs?

There is a thread on pirate about them somewhere. They're made to be pretty light. I will be curious to see how they hold up. A lot of people acted like they wouldn't last for racing or getting beat on hard. I am curious to see them in action because I know they will get beat on this buggy.

Definitely gonna have some nice parts in it.

THE AXLES ARE THE NEW YUKONS THE HUBS ARE VERY LIGHT 2 HUB 2 ROTORS 2 CALIPERS AND 2 CALIPER BRACKET AND A SET OF PADS WEIGHE 45 LBS U LOOOSE 120 LBS ON UR AXLE AT THE WHEEL SHOULD BE EASIER ON STUB SHAFTS LESSS UN SPRUNG WEIGHT AS FAR AS THE CHASSIS WHEN IT GET COLOR AND HIT TRAIL IT WILL BE POSTED UP
