Default Knuckles rubbing Beadlock screw??

Just installed a pair of aluminum knuckles i bought off another member, not branded. I swapped my kit plastic wheels for my other Axial Beadlock 1.9's and the screw heads hit the knuckle!!?? Becuae of this I can't use this wheel set. Any suggestions??? I assume this has happened to someone else...hopefully Thx for any help

Take the factory beadlock screws out and get some flush screws and that should fix it

Slash front hexes are pretty wide. Or if they aren't rubbing too deep just shave a bit off the knuckles.

Ok I'll look into the hexes. I may be able to shave a notch with my dremel I guess

The cheap steering knuckles do this, to solve it i used wider stampede hex's and dremeled a small notch in the knuckle for the screws to clear, my truck has been setup this way for 3 years at least

I countersunk the screw holes and used countersunk screws - quick, simple, and I didn't have to widen the track width.
