Default hex driver for wheels

hi guys...

I just installed the super 300 CVD into the axial axle. and I went with VP wheels, but my hex driver is to big to fit in that hold from wheels. I meant that hex driver is too fat...haha

anyone know which hex driver can fit perfectly??

thanks

I use a Hudy 5/16" hex driver for my slws. It will fit without modding, but it's still pretty tight. I sanded mine down just a shade so I don't have to fight as much to get the driver back out after tightening the nut.

Buy a cheap socket or hex driver and grind off some of the outer diameter so it fits into the opening.
