17 mm hexes seems to be the most popular ones around here. I got a set of prolines 40's with 23 mm hexes, but no adaptor for it yet. It been a year. Luckly I have axial 40's which has 17mm hex and serves me well so far. I bid on ebay on both at same time, and was the only one that bidded on the prolines which sucks, cuz then I had to pay for both sets.

That stinks man. I would be so pissed, thats why i dont use ebay that much... I think im going to get some 40 series wheels from yukon365 that have a 14mm hex, and i will take those badlands im getting from reflection and put them on and run them until i can get a 17mm adapter.

Krawlerhobbies hooked me up with these fantastic links! They are perfect for what i wanted them for, thanks again Jason!  I then sped off into building mode and got something like this when i was done, 1 hr later  Rear  Front  Those are not the best upper link mounts, but they will work for now. Im still waiting on a body and skid from bigflex, but heres what the only other body i have looks like on it.  Size comparison with my berg   Definetly is going to be fun. I still need to get 2x pinions, 3x hexes, and either new wheels or new adapters, and some clamps or something to mount my shocks. Let me know what you think |

Whats the O.D. on the links? I may have some shock mounts that will bolt to them. Do you have a 3mm tap and a .098" drill? |

Nice links. I may have to give a call to Krawlerhobbies. My clod currently have the "Real dogman" dogleg links. They're the tits. I love it. I am considering building a much lighter clod rig and that links you have just might be the ticket. Thanks for showing the pictures. I am enjoying your build. Keep up the good work.

Looking good Colby!! Glad to see the links worked out good for you. The OD on them should be 3/8. If what Reflection has wont work, then you can look at getting some TLT mounts for them instead. So, when you going to let me drive it!! -Jason |

Sounds good. Just let me know. I think our links would work great for what your tring to do. I prefer a stright link as opposed to a bent anyways. All of our links are also hand cut and sanded to make sure they are perfect! They don't leave until I am happy with them and would run them on my rigs. If there not 100% then they are headed for the crap pile and out comes another one... -Jason | |

You have a good looking rig there so far. Will be nice to see how it works for you. If you are running the stock axles, try to keep the wheels, and rig on the lighter side. A heavy rig with a 3 cell lipo and 55t motors, likes to break axle shafts. Just my experiance.
