This is the exact set I got. They fit the wheel hex, but you need to drill your wheel hole one size bigger. Hope this helps!

My current setup. Excuse the mess.


Got some new shock mounts. Thanks to Nick for the advice and help!


Outboarded and lowered the shocks.

Default Rock City. Mtn Diablo. Walnut Creek.

Caught the snow up at the peak, and then headed down to rock city for some crawling. It was alright. Having a scaler would be more fun there, but got some good crawling in nontheless!








My favorite shot





Yours truely!

Default Bind!!

Went out with the truck yesterday for a little bit and started having some bind issues. It soon became really bad and the motor was running hot after about 4 minutes. Went over to Hobbytown and Mike and Chino helped me figure out what was wrong.

I haven't greased the worms since I bought it a month ago and it was time. I took it apart, greased it up and put it together and so far so good. No bind yet. I will report back after a couple days.

I did it last night! I was dreading doing it because I thought it would take forever but both front and rear took an hour!

The wheels are the stock LNC wheels sprayed black and I ordered the beadlocks from this place.. $20 for 4. If you are going to order them, order two sets.

They are machined aluminum and look great! ,

I thought they were the stock wheels but I could not figure out what rings you were running. Looks good.

It's a course run by the local Hobbytownusa! There is sooo much to crawl around here in the east bay. It's crazy.

How are the beadlocks working?

I've wanted to replace the stock plastic ones with blue aluminum without paying $$$ for full wheel set. These look GREAT if they work well.
