i need some help finding wheel extenders/wideners. im running stock axial ax10 axles. i have rc4wd steel wheels. so there is no hex on the axleshaft to turn the wheel it is just the pin or key. i was looking for something 1/2(12.7mm) or longer. im looking for new or used does not matter much. would prefer to deal with a member or vendor on this site

And yes i have searched this topic in the listings

too many posts and threads come up. likes pages and pages and havent found what i was looking for after the first 20 minutes of searching.

You could order the replacement hex adapters for those wheels and then source any wider hex?

OEM Steel 1.9 Stock Beadlock Wheel Hexes

Or maybe order a second set of the pin type. Looks like you could grind the face flat and mate two of them together with longer screws?

Billet wheel hub for OEM Stamped 1.9 Wheels

Not sure how much width that would get you. But the hexs are only about $10 a set. I think I remember that Vanquish hexs or wheel adapters may fit the RC4WD steel wheels. I do not remember if it was the Steelies or another wheel. The Vanquishes are available in all kinds of offsets.

Get the hex hubs for your wheels and wheel wideners from RC4WD. You need to order the barrel nuts separately. JunFac also makes the wideners with nut in red.
