Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Alot of people have ask me about this mod so i thought i would do a quick how to hope this help. Frist take a wide hex and a vp hub bolt it to a 1.9 rim. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1292350876 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1292350911 http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1292350936 Then take a 5/32 drill bet using the hub as your guide, after that take the hub off then redrill the holes using a 1/8 drill bet. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1292350999 Then using a 13/32 drill to open up the center hole to fet your wheel wrench. http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1292351036 Then you have two ways you can bolt up ether put the bolt throw the rims then add nut for that stock look or bolt them up as normal i hope this help, http://i609.photobucket.com/albums/t...g?t=1292351250 |

This great new for breathing new life into these wheels. |
re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs The same principle applies to other wheels too."thumbsup" |
re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Very cool! I wish I hadn't sold off those brand new 1.9's now :ror: |
re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs Did you shave hex down or leave it ? This great new for breathing new life into these wheels. Just leave it as is:mrgreen: |
re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs I had a spare wheel to try out. Decided to get it shot. I used 4-40 drill & tap set. I threaded the holes for 4-40. http://i850.photobucket.com/albums/a...3/IMAG0492.jpg http://i850.photobucket.com/albums/a...3/IMAG0493.jpg http://i850.photobucket.com/albums/a...3/IMAG0495.jpg http://i850.photobucket.com/albums/a...3/IMAG0496.jpg This good mod for me since I have run 8mm wide hex to clear my TSS,MSD wheels. But with the axial's I can run normal width hex. It looks like I could run SCX10 narrow hex now. Awesome mod for sure! "thumbsup" |

re: Drill press rim mod's with VP hubs I really like this idea. I might be needing a wider stance for a build I'm doing. Do you think this would be better/stronger than the rc4wd wideners? I would think so, but I haven't used either. Thanks for the how to! |
