Default VP hub types

I was going to check with Vanquish, but oh yeah, it's saturday. Probably some of you know.

What are the differences between the various VP wheel hubs? If I'm not mistaken, the DH and SLW are interchangeable except the SLW hubs have no cut-outs to clear the weights. But same bolt pattern. You guys buy that?

And Losi vs Axial. Is this just because the Losi 12mm hexes have a little step on the outside that needs to be cleared? If so, could Axial hubs be used on a losi car if that little step were sanded off?

I'm looking for maximum interchangeablity between my cars and wheels, so trying to figure out the differences.

The inner shoulder is on lots of different brand hexes ... and also not on lots of other brands. Axial has that on their standard hex but not on their narrow hexes, etc. If you have a 12mm hex with a shoulder, you can dremel it off and still run the wheels that have the placement for them.

There is a difference in the though hole though on the vanquish stuff:

Vanquish offsets for Losi

Yeah, unfortunately those links just mention stuff without any details. Both Losi and Axial run 4mm wheel nuts, so any bore difference must be inboard of the threads.

I guess I didn't say, but I'm trying to interchange wheels and hubs between a LNC and AX10. If I need to do some minor mods, that's fine.
