Announcing the release of new wheel widener/wheel weights that are compatible with the Trail Trekker. These wideners offset each side three millimeters for a total of six millimeters total. Each spacer and barrel nut add approximately nine grams to each wheel. The barrel nut is flush with rim and should fit under any washer type weights. They are for sure compatible with the stock Losi wheels and Hot Racing Bead Lock alloys. Spacer is brass and the nut is 316L stainless. PM me or Email lavacapcrawling@gmail.com if your interested.

Do you have a vendors thread started somewhere for ordering? If not maybe you should so that you can post the prices and all. Last question: you say they fit the Trekker...did you try them on one of the original micro set-ups yet? I would like to order a set! |

I am trying to figure out this vendor thing, I have not sold online before. I have a paypal account and can send you a request for payment then mail when the payment comes through. I put the cart a little ahead of the horse. I will get it sorted in the next day or so I hope. If you have any advise I would appreciate some. Thanks. | |

Hmmm, neat idea for a widener. I bet with the Trekker stub they would work fine on the Crawler. One suggestion though: any chance of machining a groove into the face to use a flat head screwdriver to remove and install them? Seems simpler and easier than sending in a separate tool. Since BWD is pretty much dead for wideners, these could end up being really popular. Looking forward to see them on sale! |

Are you planning on including a tool with each set with that two pin set-up? Anyone have a pic of the difference in the hub on the Micro crawler and the trekker? I know the part # for the Micro axle stubs is LOSB1712. I can't find a part number for the Trekker ones! Last edited by DANALLY; 10-03-2012 at 10:05 PM. | |

As a Vendor, you need to disclose your contact info and prices! Your lack thereof and post count makes me nervous.
