| A few losi Mc4x4 Trail Trekker parts are llisted on losi.com
the parts to make the axles wider still aren't listed yet so far its the mounted wheel and tire, bare wheel,wheel weights, bare scale tires,bent links, chassis plate,and longer drive shafts The wheels look the same as before and I believe i read they will work with the older wheels. the weights are 6.99 though |

sweet. I think the wheels for the TT have a different offset, therefore being wider? that or the plastic hexes for the TT are different. either way, those the DS's and the weights are gonna be great! |

the width increase is from wider hexes and axle shafts the tires are a pretty good deal for $6.99 for 4. they looks similar to the RC4wd tires though the picture makes it look like the tread isn't as deep. I really want to get the longer axle shafts and hexes. that with a wheel widener kit could make for some wide rigs | |

| The wheels are the same, the stub axles and wheels hexes are longer. The overall width is 3mm wider per side.

So with the O.G. micro axles, and some barrel nuts, AND the new TT wheel hexes, we can widen the original axles. A set of barrel nuts seem a lot cheaper than $11 or $30 for a set of wheel wideners. |

true! but people pay $10 for delrin and $26 for aluminum extensions now. and those are just wide hex extensions with barrel nuts like you said. depending on the price Id like to have a set of longer axle shafts with thicker hexes. they should also work with the available extension kits making for some pretty wide axles. just the thing for some of those 1/18 builds and if you already have the axles they are cheaper than the Micro Trex from Rc4WD |

I wonder if the longer driveshafts would work on the TMC kits?
