I am not sure....
could I use wraith/xr c hubs with old sds 300's regulars? not the hd ones?

Yes.
To further your question, you can use the xr/wraith chubs but if you're already running old school 300's then you're probably running ax10 chubs. If this is the case then you're better off with ax10 8* chubs so they will work with your tubes as wraith is bigger than ax10.
I think you're running rcbros tubes that are made for wraith. In that situation, if you want old school 300's in there you're right and you want wraith chubs with my knuckles.
Did I complicate that enough?

Looking forward to these being available, Harvo set looks like the ticket with Dlux bully shafts, nice work Erik!
Thanks man!
There is a decent size wrench thrown into the works right now. Its a good wrench though. Hoping the knuckles come out at half the price, 2x more functional and better looking!

Do the bully outer shafts eliminate the wheel hexes and pins?
i've been getting ready to buy some wraith knuckles and a knuckle weight system for my xr10. your knuckles peaked my interest. if the price gets some reduction it looks like you will be getting some of my hard earned money! "thumbsup"

Hmmm.....I like where this is going.
Now I don't need the weight but I've wanted to come up with a bearing in the king pin. If I read right a bearing replaces the brass bushing. Do you have more pic's of that? My truck is around 13 lbs. which actually I like but I wear out the brass bushing pretty quick. Not sure if bearings would really last any longer. Any thoughts? I run your Dlux no slop bushing now.

No. The Bully type outer uses the same parts that say a Wraith would. The catch is that the Bully outer has a different design so, its easy to build a hub that eliminates the wheel hex. This is less slop and less weight.
Yep, the knuckles should cost less than a VP knuckle and either a VP weight or my weight. "thumbsup"
I dont have any pics on hand and the entire design just changed anyhow.
I am not sure how a 13lb truck would treat the kingpin bearings. If you really had some issues, with this new design, I could make a bad ass version for you and you could use up to a 6x22 :shock: bearing to solve your issues.

Those are awesome...now i gotta figure out how i can use them. :twisted:
figure i would give this thread a bump since i'm curious about when dlux will be taking some of my hard earned money! "thumbsup"
I am working as hard and as fast as possible. I probably worked 80hrs last week!
I know it seems like its taking forever in my head so I can only imagine how some of you feel. Sorry. I want to release a good product and sometimes that means more time and testing. Sure, I could start selling them today, but if you can give me just a bit longer, you will have a much better product.
Hang in there with me guys!
