Made a set for my caster racing dt10. Same process for the proline beadlocks.

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

I'm sure I missed it but what length screws for rims with 10mm spacers and what length for going into hub

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Had to post these. So stoked on how they came out. Pretty easy too. Still need some touch up, but way cheaper than buying rims.

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Nicely done man !

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Wow! Just when I thought this idea couldn't get any better. I'm definitely jumping on this bandwagon. Awesome idea, and thank you for sharing your experiences with us.

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Which hardware is used for this? I ordered some 4-40 3/8" which should be here Sat. I'll be drilling the wheels today at lunch

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

3/8 should work.

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Just finished the drill press mod with the stock 8 hope wheels and 225 vp hubs. The 3/8 length didn't work, ordered a bag of 5/8 as well as slim lock nuts

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

How long are the 4-40 screws that you used?

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

Looken good.

Me?

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

OK maybe I didn't see it but how did you keep from hurting my he threads of the hubs ?
Also I axial 1.9 how much does this widen the track width ? I already have the xr mod and don't need much more width. However will be nice to widen the rear

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

To do this on 2.2 axial are they the same hubs as 1.9?

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

when i did mine i was worried about buggering up the threads too. so i got some brass tube roughly the same o.d. as the i.d of the threads. i turned it down by chucking it in a dremel and sanding it. i slid this tube in the threaded hole and a 1/16th size drill bit if i remember in the tube. i also soldered a piece of brass rod to the tube so i could hold it to prevent it from spinning. then i enlarged the holes with the hub off. hope that helps

Re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs
 

I use a old hub to do the drilling.

Made up some new ring to go with the rim mod.
