This is the Axial 1/10 Yeti Trophy Truck Kit. Now in kit form, the Yeti SCORE Trophy Truck is a purposely engineered desert truck with a solid rear axle and independent front suspension. Make no bones about it, this is not a short course truck nor is it designed for the sugar coated and manicured racetracks of R/C. This Trophy Truck is designed for the roughest of conditions and REAL DIRT. We beg for the dirt and rocks to be brought back to off-road! There are reasons why full size Trophy Trucks feature the four link suspension design; durability, capability, and improved forward bite without sacrificing suspension travel. Full-size Trophy Trucks inspired the distinct aesthetic and technical elements of this truck, right down to the solid rear axle. The retro inspired body features design queues from a 1960s era roof-line, classic 1970s wheel arches and glass shapes from the 1980s. Giving this kit an extra bit of modern contrast comes in the form of fluorescent orange Method 105 wheels. This kit version will accept standard 1/10th scale brushed and brushless 4-pole systems and most major stick pack batteries. Precision machined aluminum shocks are standard equipment and deliver smooth suspension movement for consistent handling.
SCORE International, the premier world championship desert racing association, was founded in 1973 by the legendary Mickey Thompson. This race organization is home to the world famous Baja 1000 and Baja 500 events. If you live in Southern California, chances are you have seen the iconic red, white and blue SCORE decals adorning off road vehicles all over the place. This desert racing series was the early inspiration for short course racing events, as organizers tried to bring desert racing to the masses in confined spaces. Thats right, short course off road racing was born in the desert. In true Axial style, we brought you a new R/C vehicle replicating desert racings top level competition vehicles, the SCORE Trophy Truck.
Axial didnt stop there. We partnered with the top companies actively developing their products through desert racing to take authenticity to the next level. The Axial SCORE Retro Trophy Truck is suspended by a set of aluminum King Shocks rocking the iconic blue shock caps, rod ends, ride height adjusters and springs. King Shocks is a company who has all but dominated the sport through the years providing the latest technology known to man to conquer the harsh terrain of Baja.
Axial also partnered with BFGoodrich Tires to bring you accurate replicas of the latest spec desert racing tire, the Baja T/A KR2. This tire has already produced wins at both the Baja 1000 and the grueling King of the Hammers events. A set of five functional BFGoodrich tires mounted to the extremely strong 105 Method Race wheels provide the connection to dirt. The fifth wheel and tire being a functional spare accessed quickly from the rear of the Trophy Truck cage.
BFGOODRICH BAJA T/A KR2 TIRES
In the full-size off-road world of Trophy Truck racing, BFGoodrich Tires has proven to be the go-to tire of choice over the years. It is responsible for winning numerous Baja championships, including the 2014 SCORE Baja 500 and 1000. The Axial version of this tire captures the same aggressive look and provides awesome performance on a wide variety of surfaces. This is the perfect tire for this style of vehicle due to its high level of performance and diversity.
2.2/3.0 METHOD WHEELS
Based off the popular Method 105 machined wheels, these officially licensed wheels are dressed in orange for a fresh style and theyre compatible with most 2.2/3.0 short course tires. The hub design allows this wheel to mount to any YETI, Wraith, AX10 or SCX10.
ADJUSTABLE ALUMINUM SHOCKS
The included aluminum King Shocks feature precision machined pistons which offer smooth performance throughout the range of travel. Made to tight tolerances, these aluminum shocks feature clear coated polished aluminum bodies and are threaded for quick ride height adjustments and pre-load tuning ability.
Two rear spring sets are included:
14x90mm 2,25 lbs/in - (Green) Firm
14x90mm 2.78 lbs/in - (Yellow) Firm
Front spring set included:
14x54mm 4.33 lbs/in (Yellow) Firm
ALUMINUM LOWER LINK PLATES
Includes hard anodized 2mm aluminum AX31245 Lower Link Plate Set (aluminum)(4pcs) for added durability and stiffness of the rear 4-link suspension.
UNIVERSAL FRONT AXLE SET
Our universal front axle set provides smooth action for a higher performing, efficient drivetrain. Each universal is made of hardened steel so it's capable of handling extreme power.
AR60 OCP-AXLE, SOLID REAR AXLE, 4-LINKED
The AR60 OCP-Axle is constructed from high strength composite material which has a low flex rate but is not as brittle as standard glass filled nylon. The combination of our axles and a true 4-link suspension gives you optimal performance for any terrain with the look of a real 1:1 vehicle.
INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION
The Yeti Trophy Truck is equipped with an Independent Front Suspension [IFS] system to help maintain high-speed stability when running through a diverse range of terrain. The IFS system allows you to better control the intended direction of travel at high speeds when one side is adjusting to overcome road obstructions. This stability that the IFS front end provides is paramount when blasting through the desert. Backing up the front suspension is the AR60 rear axle with a true 4-link design that cycles nearly 3 of wheel travel.
WB8 HD WILD BOAR REAR DRIVESHAFT
The WB8 HD rear driveshaft features an updated design with a larger diameter cross pin (2x11mm) along with an M4 Screw Shaft (2mm hex drive) for added strength. A center splined slider floats between each end and features added material which reduces flex and fatigue.
Uses an M4 Screw Shaft (2mm Hex Drive) to hold the driveshaft onto the output shafts. The center splined slider floats between each end and features added material which reduces flex and fatigue.
INTEGRATED LONG TRAVEL REAR SWAY BAR
The pursuit of horsepower and the ability to put the power to the ground is one of the main aspects of off-road racing. This unique torsion bar design with long pivot arms used in conjunction with the long travel suspension is designed to help control the torque twist associated with massive power. This system also helps reduce body roll and adds stability at high speeds.
M4 THREADED STEEL TURNBUCKLES
Weve included a full set of CNC machined M4 threaded steel turnbuckles for precision, added tuning and durability. Features left and right handed threads for making quick adjustments on the fly.
DUAL SHEAR STEERING RACK

Optional two-speed transmission component sold separately (AX31181).
PROTECTIVE TRANSMISSION COVER
Helps keep dirt and debris out of your pinion and spur gear for a quiet and efficient drivetrain, and it also prevents any loose wires from getting chewed up!
DUAL SLIPPER CLUTCH
Our dual slipper design uses a pad on each side of the spur gear for added surface area. This allows for more precise tuning and holding power. The spur gear features strong, 32 pitch gearing for high torque applications.
WB8 HD CENTER CVD JOINT
The WB8 HD Wildboar Driveshaft Joint is employed from the transmission to the front bulkhead. It features an updated design with a larger diameter cross pin (2x11mm) along with an M4 Screw Shaft (2mm hex drive) for added strength.
HEAVY DUTY BEVEL GEAR SET - 38T/13T
The heavy duty gear set offers you improved gear mesh reducing slop in the drive train. In addition it helps add weight low down which helps keep the center of gravity low and on the rocks where you want it. Made from high grade steel and hardened for increased strength.
