Didn't notice that I needed a shim in the front, seemed to roll pretty easy.
Also had to dremel out one side of the front a bit...somebody's tolerance was a bit off
The passenger side? I had to open mine up a bit too.

Found these on Ebay. The are split on both sides. Looks like they might work out.

I was wondering after looking at my SXC10 is it possible that these would NOT work on the Front Axle because of the steering linkages or the hubs turning into the Shaft Collar?

I second that with crawler nut..at bass pro shops you can get different lenths and widths of the duck decoy weights,,, I wrap them around rim and cut where they meet, then wrap them real good with black tape so they don't sling apart and they work with any wheel and no clearance problems..i do this to all my rigs with great resuts..

Got these in yesterday and they worked fine on my rig. I did have to add a small washer behind the wheel on the passenger side. It was rubbing just a bit.

Good deal, have you had it out yet?

Did they work for the Front and Back axle?

I got mine in today for my SCX10. Trying to figure out how to make them fit for the front. Had to come home and re-read this thread about putting the washer on.
