Check the tlt widener sticky. I believe you are looking for the blackfoot axles. Widener Comparison Chart |

I'm not sure what to tell you. According to the MSD site it says they are Blackfoot axle stubs: http://www.montanascaledesigns.com/s...products_id=34 |

I am not saying you are wrong, i just have the og blackfoots, so maybe the parts are from the new blackfoot with regular hexes |

It's understandable. I was just making sure that those were the ones you were talking about. I have also used the tobee wideners. They work well, a little pricey but come in various lengths. I have some 8mm, and 16mm that I am using now. Can't find any of the smaller ones at the moment, but here are the 32mm ones. http://cgi.ebay.com/43220-Tobee-Craf...item3ca2a63026 Just have to keep a look out. The smaller ones pop up from time to time. |

Oh, okay. Well after much surfing, I was unable to come up with any stubs online. Then I remembered that I used the blackfoot stubs back in the day. Guess what, I got two just sitting here. PM sent.

| I have a set of TG-10 long axles - they only give you more thread. The pin is in the same spot as the stock TLT units. (I think Tamiya made a wider plastic hex for these on one of the early mini chassis that would give you a wider track but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't hold up so great on a TLT) I recently scored a few Blackfoot axle pairs in eBay - that's probably your best bet. I currently use the Tobee 8mm wideners but I'm sure I'll break one of 'em one of these days. |
