Apex High-Clearance Center Driveshaft Carrier

PLA-CF | Lifetime Warranty

Designed for the NWChassisWorks Apex 1/24 Rock Crawler Chassis

Description

The NWChassisWorks Apex High-Clearance Center Driveshaft Carrier is designed to improve ground clearance and breakover angle on the Apex chassis. This design supports the center of the driveshaft while keeping it tucked higher in the chassis—reducing hang-ups on rocks, ledges, and trail obstacles.

This carrier is 3D printed from carbon-fiber reinforced PLA (PLA-CF), providing excellent rigidity, durability, and lightweight performance for micro crawler applications.
