| Older style Vanquish VVDs and tightening my wheel nut
People of the forum - I am wondering if you will be of assistance please. I purchased older style VVDs from vanquish a while back. Being lazy and slow in my build I am now realizing I have no easy way to tighten the 5mm wheel nut on my vanquish wheels because I do not have a small enough wrench to fit into the wheel to tighten the nut. Does anyone know where to find a small enough driver to fit into the wheel so that I can tighten the nut that holds my wheel to the vvd stub? Is it possible to swap out just the bit end of a VP VVD to the smaller newer design with 4mm nuts? I thought I saw some driver tips on their site a while back, some specialized driver....anyone know if it was to address this very issue? Ok, thanks people of the rccrawler forum - thanks for any help you might offer. |

I had to grind down the 7mm socket to get mine to fit.

Yep, ok. Thanks. This was the first plan but then I didn't want to at least ask here first. Seems stupid but I guess thats it unless anyone else has any ideas. I was also, like I mentioned, thinking I would swap the end of my vvd. Gonna call vp Monday and see what they suggest. Something tells me it will be the suggestion that nets them some more scratch....hahah, can't blame them. The other thing is, I don't want to have to keep this damn ground down driver handy all the time....in the event I have to remove the wheel.
