RE: My RS10 Build
Several parts from the Axials work like, bent lowers, high clearance steering set up, any wheels that say they will fit axial and aluminum knuckles. I also made a battery tray to run normal 6 cell stick pack slightly move towards the front. I made a custom aluminum reciever/esc tray and lowered it to help lower the CG. Im also working on a way to get rid of the bat wing upper suspension mount and just run a normal style set up but I havent quite got it figured out where I like it yet.

RE: My RS10 Build
There's a whole thread I created over on rccrawler's forums about the RS10's. Has plenty of info about mods and some pictures of my rig and some others for references. Let me know if you have any questions. Here's the link:

RE: My RS10 Build
I just got my new one today too. I put my other wheels and tires on, hacked up the body for more clearance, made the delrin skid and now its torn apart awaiting the rest of the parts to come.

Yes the Axial rings fit RS10 and RS10 rings fit Axial. Th nice thing about the RS10 rings is the bolts are counter sunk so they wont get caught on the rocks.
