Micro Crawler Wheel Nut
 
Hello,

I'm new to crawling and not long into R/C as a whole. I have a lipo on the way and was wanting to experiment with trimming the foams and adding some weight to the wheels, however after removing the rear wheels to reverse the tread I saw the wheel nuts weren't going to last long. Any size nuts to recommend?


Thank you,

JRM

Thank you for the replies! I wasn't sure if those would work.

Is this the tool I'd need?

yikes $16 shipped? I get by with the plastic hex wrenches that come with kits or even cheap hex nut drivers that are half that price for a whole kit
go to walmart,home Depot or a hardware/auto parts store
or better yet harbor freight. you could find a kit of 5 sizes or more for less than half that price and you wont have to wait for shipping.

Good call. I'll see what I can find tomorrow. Thinking about trying some fishing weights in the wheels too. Waiting on a lipo and new shocks (sheared one) to come in, so I'm a bit sidelined until then.

Buy the nuts on this page. Close to the bottom of the page. Perfect fit.

If you have a radio shack near you go to the parts drawers and find the 2-56 steel machine hex nuts. They work perfectly, have been running them on my micro, if you want also get the lock washers. I found that these work beause I use to use then on my x-mods."thumbsup"
