The mini comp crawler is making a comeback! And thus new products will be needed. Presenting:

JCAD - MRC Knuckle Weight Holders

2014-03-23192305_zps11adf6fc.jpg


These will be available in different colors, and made for different brand knuckles.

Currently I have the following knuckles ready to go:

Losi/Vaterra Stock plastic
LOSB1409-250.jpg


Losi Aluminum (Zero Ackerman)
LOSB1411-2.jpg


GPM

And very soon I should have the HR knuckles ready as well (just need a set to verify measurements)


These will include 2x 4-40 BHCS to hold the holder to the knuckle, as well as 2x M3 SHCS to attach the knuckle weight. Weights are NOT included, and are designed to work with the RCBros knuckle weights (half and full weights).

These will not work will all wheels. Your wheels will need to have a minimum clearance of 40mm for the weights to fit. Also, your offset will determine how thick the weights can be. A typical Axial 1.9 Beadlock with Losi 8mm hexes will clear the .25 weights.

Price and purchase information in the post below:

Very nice! Great option for these little beast rigs.

Now for the questions... lol..

What's the chances on a set for Rcbros high street Knuckle's?

Why Rcbros weights? (Nothing against them).. The Dlux weight rings would be perfect tho. The are the smallest diameter weight ring and for the 1.9 wheels much easier and more styles of them. Which gives the user more options. And we all know, options, are the ticket for the majority of us.. :)

Edit.. Just saw the vendor thread.. I'll send Rcbros Knuckle's for ya. I'll even send Dlux half and hole weight rings! Options for everybody! I can even send VP and BMRC weights.

Maybe it will get extra buyers out of the guys with the weight rings already at home!?

Awesome! Options will always be a good thing... PM Sent
 
Though I don't plan to run stock knuckles, I'm loving the renewed support for this rig.

Awesome stuff dude.

Great job.

Looks great! Glad to see they clear the steering rod ends, and look at all that space for weights in those wheels.

Adding support for other brand weights very soon. Thanks for the pics!
 
Yeah plenty of clearance for the rod ends, using traxxas/axial rod ends, also have like .8 inches of clearance for weights
 
Update, scored some dlux weight rings over the weekend so i just drilled and tapped new mounting holes and bada bing done :mrgreen: Probably won't need both rings on each side but for now they are on
