Default Another way to add weight

To your axial 1.9 beadlocks.

Used a 3/8x16 tap and 3/8x16 set screw. Tapped the hole from the back of the wheel, removed the burs and threaded the set screw in. Did have to let them stick out a little so they wouldn't push the stick on weights off.

Interesting, how much does each set screw weigh?

About 1/4 oz or less. I'm only running about 3.75-4oz of weight on each front tire though. Would of done 8 in the wheel but ran out of set screws.
