Today will consist of a lot of cutting down button head screws for all the beadlock rings.

That's no fun. To bad they won't clear the inside diameter of the wheel. Looks like they may but you have probably already checked. Amazing that a set of rings made those wheels look scale. Looks like I may finally have to purchase a vanquish wheel.

Thanks man I couldn't resist after seeing your beadlock rings on your wheels.
Correct Carter I have checked sadly if you put the screws in they go in crooked and didn't want to scar the wheels up.

Thanks man appreciate it. I didn't buy a kit or R2R Wraith because I knew I would end up changing the entire thing. So far theres only a handful of things left that would come on a factory Wraith.

I was replying to the comment asking if anything was still stock. I was pointing out that the steering wheel on the interior may still be factory.

Not exactly a G6 comp, but no Aug 26, Offroad RC (local club) is running a jamboree trail run at Arbor Hills in Plano. Might be a good place to try it all out again. Check it out over on TXRCRCA.

Button heads. The only thing a flat head is good for is setting my beer on while she's downstairs. Hiyoooooo.

Couldn't resist seeing how'd it'd look mounted on an axle. Wish I had my new parts in so could get it back together.

Say I thought the rear output is the one that needs to be extended. Not the front, cause my front works for me but not rear. That's why I'm using the dig to get the rear to work.
