Default Wheel Wideners

Are there options for wheel wideners for the MRC or is there only one extended size, if you run some can you link me to the kind you run please. I just ordered literally ordered everything for my crawler and I plan on running the 4.7 boggers some I'm thinking wideners are in order……Thanks again for all the help guys I appreciate the tight knit MRC group we have.....and ill make sure I put that in my build thread

Those tires are going to be huge on the MRC. I git some wideners from TCS and they work good. I've also seen someone cut down the widener and make a new pin mount so that they weren't so wide.

I know they are 4.7s but I'm running the snipe dmg chassis and factory size lowers and I have a nice trick up my sleeve for link placement that should clear them....but I still want a nice track width

You may need to drill the center hole in your wheels slightly larger to accommodate the long & extra wide nut. Some of my wheels I had to drill & some were fine. I run the widners only in thr front so my rear tires have less chance of clipping a gate.

I've seen the Wideners at TCS. The same JunFac ones I used on a 2.2 rig.
What about these http://www.junfac.com/shop/index.php...7e0e9c950d02b7
They are 11mm and a 12mm hex. Made for a smaller car.?

was wondering if these would fit better myself due to the cross pin on the 1/16 revo would be closer in size to the mrc. anyone tried them before?

Has anyone had problems with premature bearing wear, or more broken knuckles? It's a problem on 1:1 cars, and it seems alot of stuff scales down.. especially the price, lolsz
