Default Solid Axle question

I have a stampede 2wd not the greatest thing for rocks and what not but its still a beast. i was wondering how i would go about putting solid axles on the pede if you can. i would love to get into the rock crawling stuff...i`m a big fan of mud but i love a good challenge with rocks. I locked my diff but the halfshaft just broke and i thought i might give solid axles a thought. thanks for the help.

well i own a stampede also, to do what you need, first, take the arms, lock them in a just above level state, then you get all the hight you can, mine is set up for 5in of clearance with stock tires, i'll get back to you on this as soon as i remember what i did.
