I'm so impatient I worked all day on trying to get my new wheels I bought with the boggers to fit my jeep. It never worked. I tried a wheel adapter kit the hobby store had that I basically drilled through my axles, slid the adapter onto the jeeps axle and put a pin in then screwed the adapter on tight. then the wheel fits on that. It's ahrd to explain, regardless it didnt' work....one thing though is that it had no ground clearance...it wasn't that great, I had it running for a little bit, but the tires fell off, it was a monster with the boggers on it..it climbed jsut about anything, then the wheel would fall off. Let me know how to post a pic and i'll put one on here....
