Default Harley's Steering Wheel Adapters! New radios and styles.

Simple little add on to run a 1.9 VP wheel on your Radio. I have been running mine for over 2 years now

For anyone is wanting to put a VP 1.9 on their radio (4PK or 4PL) this is a simple and cool mod. Send me a PM or email first just to make sure I have some left! Here is the vendor thread on it.

4PK and 4PL 1.9 VP Wheel Adapters - $10



Uses the stock wheel's foam.



2 piece setup.


Just drill and tap the larger piece, all holes are spotted .050" deep already so there is no guessing. Super easy.

Can this Mod work for other types of wheels? I run Axial beadlocks.

Thanks for all you do, too!

Super cool! I cut up mini claws from mrc's, & puttem over the foam for friends. Looks factory. Gotta do the same with a vp under it! Great idea.

I checked out the Axial rims last night. They just won't work. I even went as far as milling the backside down, just won't work.

The RC4WD steelies will work but you would have to figure out the foam as the stock one looks odd. Also for the steelies you need an additional washer but that's it.

I'll post up some pics.

It would have been a nice option. Cheap and easy for sure.

Here is where I was trying to modify it.

Yours was one of the first out so you should have it any day!

Still looking at more options, these have gone over better then I figured they would. You guys like worthless blingy upgrades as much as I do

Use a 1/10 sedan tire on the rim. Width should be closer then the stock foam grip and looks cooler.
