I have these..they are way WAY bomb proof"thumbsup"

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

it says they widen each side 15mm. the red Junfac ones I have above widen it 13mm. so unfortunately those are going the wrong direction/too wide. :cry:

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

I assumed the 5/8" you mentioned in the first post was how much they widen it. I guess that must be a overall length measurement. How much do you want it to actually widen the truck?

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

well the 13mm is too much. so probly 8-10mm?
the grey slash hexs are not enough.

J-fab makes some that RPP sells:
J-Fab Designs 8mm Wheel Hex (2)

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

An 8mm hex isn't going to widen the truck the 8-10mm that he wants. It would only widen it a couple mm over stock hexes.

The only downside to these is that the hole is for a 5mm shaft (like TLT CVDs or Axial Super 300s). You can make some kind of shim to take up the slop but they work ok as is. They just fall off everytime you remove the wheel.
I have used them for years on Pepe.

The description says they are .25" just like the traxxas hexes that he said were too narrow.

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

I thought he was saying he wanted something between the traxxas hexes (which I believe are 6mm) and the junfac. Perhaps I misunderstood....

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

correct, i need ones that are thicker/more offset than the traxxas grey hexes, and shorter/less offset than the junfac red wideners.

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

That's what he said initially but then specified this:
Edit: I have already been confused in this thread a couple times so I really don't know.

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

In what way do they differ from the $4.90 hexes sold on ebay and shipped worldwide for free ?

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

They'll never get stuck in your hubs, they lock tighter than any other hex I've used, they are machined and anodized aluminum not coated or painted, the pins are chromoly and they sit properly against bearings...I hope that answers your question.

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

And those are NOT the same as what I'm selling...those are cheap pot metal junk.

Re: thick hex's? or wideners?
 

thanks crawl o matic, but those unfortunatly are not thick enough for my needs.

i just got out my calipers. it looks like what i need is ~10-12mm in measured thickness is what im looking for.
the junfacs measure close to 16mm
