I'm stumped fellas.
I like the 2.2 Dirt Hawg 1 tires and Axials new 2.2 12mm hex wheels.
My problem is, the rear axle has 14mm hexes and I'm either going to use a Stampede front end with 12mm hubs or an 1/8 buggy or truggy front end with 17mm hubs.
How the heck can I get a matching set of wheels on this beast. I wrote to RC4WD to see if they make any adapters. I even saw some adapters on ebay for a Pede that I might buy and just drill out to fit the Mad Force rear end.

I'm just wondering what you 2WD guys have done to make things work out.

Thanks

ok A COOKIE TO THE MAN WHO FINDS VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THAT THORBOB TRUCK !!"thumbsup"

 

[Tig]

I'm not sure there was a video of him running it. I think there was one of him bench testing the motors. It is a pretty nutty Truck.

If any body can find a realistic Trophy, Pre-Runner, or Class 1 truck that would be awesome. I am affiliated with a real Off-Road Race team. I want to say that there is nothing else in this world like going 90 miles an hour off-road in a class one!!! If any one can find a realisic one please tell me!!! I want one!!!

Prime,
That looks great. Post up more shots as you get further allong into the build.

Will do. I will be starting my build up thread soon. I have the front suspension arm mounts almost done. Just need to figure out shock and mounts.

I'm just wondering what you 2WD guys have done to make things work out.
Thanks

I am using HPI hubs and axle stubs in the front so the hex matches the tlt rear. Not really any help for your situation, but that is how I did it.

 

[Tig]

dotson,
I saw a Tamiya based RC on Ebay with that same body. Its deffinately a sharp looking body

Prime,
Thanks a bunch, I appreciate the help. I am ordering some 12mm hexes I'll drill them out to accept the 8mm axle of the Mad Force. Hoepfullly that will work.

Thanks again

mostly suspension set up and trying to put her on a diet somehow
i have a mamba max and a 7700 in her very fast but i need some sway bars on it to keep it from rolling over.

you just need an even bigger motor to get the wheelspeed up even more so it doesnt wanna flip.. lol j/k got any videos yet ?

 

[sniper]

LOL yeah bigger motor, I' actually working on a second one thats all aluminum welded up to save some weight i guess i could put my BB .32 OFNA engine in it HMMM

The 51R will be rolling by the end of the month, running soon after.

If I did the math right, it'll be as fast as a T4 with a Mamba Max 4600. And there's no tranny.
