If i want to make a 6x6 etc and have a driven front axle with steering, whats the best option?

Tamiya TLT axles, and Hi-lift axles are about the same price, but different design. Which is better? Or should i look at something else?

They both look like they'd pretty much bolt straight into a semi truck build, or am i wrong?

Have you looked on rc4wd...I think I saw some pick up truck axels in their web page. Kinda pricy but....

TLT axles seem to be the fav. I have high lift axles and they seem a tad wide in the spring mounting division.

Yeah reading the other thread it seems tlt axles are the way to go.
