Actually, the Clodbuster has the smaller notches on the rims. The TXT-1 rims notches are probably twice the size of the Clods. The rims are the same size, and so are the tires. |

So has anyone had probs with them breaking or stripping? seems like to me that the TXT wheel would be stronger |

Personally I have never stripped out any of my rims mounting notches. I have however stripped out the Plastic hubs before, when I didn't let off the throttle after the wheels got wedged between some rocks.

Is the hex and spline on the shaft the same in both? I am trying to figure out why all the clod wheels at RC4WD say that to run on a TXT you must buy clod axle shafts??? |

The outer axleshaft on a TXT is longer than a Clod. Recently we tried putting a set of Maxx wheel adapters for a clod on a TXT. We found that the TXT stub (outer) shaft was longer and did not allow the wheel nut to be tightened all the way. I am not sure but I think that if you put Clod wheels on a TXT the wheel nut will not tighten all the way. The brass hexes are both 12mm. |

I believe it's because clod shafts are a tad shorter. If you were to put just the discs on with a clod wheel and TXT axles, the nut will tighten down before it touches the wheel, leaving it wobbly.

OK so if I bought those beadlocks from RC4WD then I would have to get clod outer shafts and those plastic spacer deals inbetween the wheels and the hex?
