ar60 Beef tubes or aluminum housings

[looneybin]

how many of you are having issues with c-hub play. I have stock housings, and hot racing c-hubs, and knuckles. I have a lot of play in the front so much so that the truck looks like its a cambered out ricer. wondering if beef tubes would fix this or if i need to just get an rc4wd housing? I know these smt10s have got to be putting stress in the same area where the c-hub attaches to the axle.

Nobody?

Hey loony....
I had issues with the HR not being as snug as it should...I tried a couple of things (plumbers tape, shoe goo...don't do that...it's hell to clean up)
Nothing worked until I switched them out for VP C's....I know, expensive...but they worked like they should....

The HR stuff has sat idle since then....

HR and strc can fit loose on some hiusings. I've had VP be lose too so it's not always a discount part problem.


I'd do beef tubes 10 times out of 10.

I ordered some aluminum beef tubes. Going to order some better c's too cause i think these have just gotten worn out.

I use the vanquish clamping C's and lockouts. There is no sag at all. I also ordered the vanquish v2 housings so should be bulletproof.

is your camber from c-hubs not fitting right or from slop in your knuckle bushings and/or bearings in the knuckle for the axles?

shimming with kyosho #96646 helps get rid of slop in the knuckle bearings, and dlux machined c-hub bushings eliminate a ton of slop over the stock axial flanged pipe bushings.

Its a combination of all of it. When you grab the wheel it all looks loose. I am gonna have to cheak out those bushings.
