[ben h]

After the hex drive hubs come loose on you for the 5th time in the last 2 batteries you'll wish you still had pin drive hubs.

iv never had an issue on any other tire setups with them and these pin ones dont agree with my wraith axles or i wouldnt care

[cabron]

don't agree??? very descriptive

unfortunately rc4wd bolt pattern does not match anything else

find out what the disagreement is between them or get new wheels
if it is a question of offset rc4wd has deeper hubs

[ben h]

rc4wd hubs are to small for this bolt pattern

and been awile since i put em on i think the pins arnt far enough away from the tubes and the wheels bind on the tubes

[cabron]

is something keeping the outer knuckle bearing from seating all the way in?
or the inner knuckle bearing from seating in well?

do all 4 wheels do the same?

You can drill those wheel bolt holes out with a 1/8" drill bit and use VP SLW hubs. At least I did on some Pro10's years ago.

Edit for link.

IME RC4WD, HR and VP hubs are all close enough that running a drillbit through the hub holes in the wheel is usualy all it takes to swap hubs between these wheels.

oh ok yea these are a bit bigger then them put one bolt in and the bolt on the other side is in the big center hole

Am using the RC4wd pin hub Wagons on an Ascender and had to put 2 thin 5mm washers between the pin and the bearing to get them to snug up without end-play. Working fine so far without any rubbing.
