Default C hub question

I'm running strc c hubs on my wraith and I'm not very happy with how they fit on the axle ends. I've replaced the self tappers that hold them on with some m3 machined screws and they still come loose.

The stock c hubs have the notches on the inside all the way across the chub but strc's are just half way and I think that's a big reason they always come loose.

Looking for some c hubs that fit tight like the plastic ones. Do the axial or vanquish fit tight and are made with these notches all the way across?

Axial or VP would be excellent choices

I run the HR CHUBS with VP Knucks with no problems of either coming loose

Considering just upgrading all my Front end parts from strc to vanquish.

The holes in my axles for the chubs arnt stripped yet, worried that it will lead to that though.

I have axial c hubs and knuckles and the c hubs are really tight! I haven't had anything come loose on either truck and I beat on them hard!

That's very good to hear about the vp and axial c hubs. Idk who else is running strc but they seem like to me there just isent enough contact surface, very loose fitting

Extremely happy with the fit and finish on this vp stuff.

Strc steering links still on. Do I need to clock my c hubs forward for the vanquish titanium links to clear or what?
As it sits now, the vp links wouldn't work at all.

Your VP should work with the c-hubs in the position you have them now. It looks like the correct angle.
