Those look very nice. One suggestion I have would be to use hex button head scews in 4-40, or 3mm rather than the phillips head. A cleaner look in my opinion.

I hear ya. I was running the RC bros knuckles too.

I really wanted to make some for the RC bros but after putting so much effort and time into this set I had to switch to the Losi ones as I cant afford to do the RC bros ones too. I finally got the Losi ones to work after a ton of work and lots of compromise.

Thanks for the support!

Maybe I am just a sucker but I really feel like the Losi is just coming into its prime. I really like my car and feel like it has never let me down.

Its hard for me to tell without having each wheel in my hands. If you take a picture I could give you a good guess.

Here are some pictures that may help everybody. I understand that not everybody will have a pair of calipers to measure but if you look at how the wheel hex relates to the back side of the wheel maybe it give you an idea of what will work with your wheels.

DH wheel with 585 hubs. There is .253 of an inch between the hex and back of the wheel. This means that both .100 spacers will fit on the wheel weight.



DH wheel with 460 hubs. There is .117 of an inch between the hex and back of the wheel. This means that one .100 spacer will fit on the wheel weight.



DH wheel with 335 hubs. There is .000 of an inch between the hex and back of the wheel. This means none of the spacers will fit on the wheel weight.



Stock LCC wheel. There is .000 of an inch between the hex and back of the wheel. This means none of the spacers will fit on the wheel weight.

They will be flat taperd 4-40. These are just prototypes.

They have a set screw that rides against the knuckle.

I got what you need brotha. Rolex? Coach purse? Spare set of lungs? Just PM me with your needs. I will take care of you.

I forgot to show this picture. The reason I wanted to show it is to show that it is possible to have all your weight on the knuckle and zero on the tire/wheel if that is desired. Two full wraps and the knuckle weights come in just under 8oz. With .700 wide wheels I can fit another wrap of lead weights if I wanted (ballpark of 10oz.)
