Precision straight axle for Wraith drivetrains

The SWR238S is a precision-engineered steel straight axle designed as an aftermarket replacement for Axial Wraith chassis, supplied by GPM. It is intended for service and drivetrain refreshes where shaft straightness and dimensional stability are required to maintain predictable driveline behaviour.

Functionally, the shaft transmits drive torque from the differential output to hub assemblies on the Wraith platform. It should be fitted when existing axles exhibit runout, bending, or wear that impacts wheel alignment and driveline smoothness.

Technical fitment notes: verify the 6x104.2mm specification and overall length against your Wraith hub geometry prior to installation. Inspect bearing seats and retaining hardware during replacement, ensure steering and suspension components have sufficient clearance, and perform rotational checks under suspension compression to detect binding. Replacing axles is commonly executed alongside bearing and hub hardware renewal to restore drivetrain precision.

What measurements are critical for SWR238S fitment?

Confirm the 6x104.2mm profile and the overall shaft length relative to hub centres. Exact dimensional match is essential for proper alignment on Wraith chassis.

Which components should be inspected during axle replacement?

Inspect bearings, retainers, hub interfaces, and splines for wear or damage. Any compromised item should be replaced to prevent premature failure and to maintain drivetrain accuracy.

How to verify correct installation?

After installing SWR238S, rotate each wheel and cycle the suspension through full travel while observing for binding or lateral runout; confirm smooth engagement under load.
