project slow horse
 
ok after taking apart my nylints axles i couldnt leave it alone..so i gave it a tummy tucke (sorry no pics right now im waitin for the glue to dry) and i still wanna do more...so im goin to stretch the wheel base.....oil filled shocks....2.2 probly moabs....only...im makin wheel adapters so i can just mount the wheels....(pics once i start those)..and to put the icing on the cake a bronco body and a custom roll cage....although i wish they made xj bodies so i can have on that matched mine..but u will get pics tonight..i promise...:flipoff:

i'd really like to see your wheel adapters. i don't wanna ghetto-rig either and would like to keep my 'stock' wheels. i've played around with some hex adapters, etc but so far haven't gotten any good ideas.

ok for the wheel adapters they would slide over where the stock wheels connect and widen/adapt for 2.2 then u would use a longer screw(front setup) and for the back im still tryin to figure it out...i'll have tummy tuck pics in a sec

yeah please get me some pics of the wheels when you start messin' with them. i think i have pretty much the same idea as you but haven't been able to figure out how to get the hex adapter mounted to the nylint hubs. i did sortof get an idea from another post though to use a hot allen wrench and melt a hex hole in a 2.2 hex adapter, glue it to a 2.2 rim then mount as one piece onto the nylint hubs. just not sure this black fiber/plastic stuff my 2.2 hex adapters are made of will melt... lol.
