12 mil hex

[illshou]

Any one converted there older rc10 to run a 12 mil drive hex? Lots of wheel choices for that.

Yup

Custom hex made from a 12mm Toyota bolt
and inserts to use flanged bearings on the front

I took the thicker Traxxas grey 12mm hexes and just tapered the back side slightly to get the 1/4" axle to fit. I wasted the first one as I tapered it too far and it bound up against the carrier, but at a couple bucks a set it was a cheap experiment. You can have your LHS order some... p/n 3654.
Here's what they look like: http://cgi.ebay.com/Rustler-Front-Wheel-Hubs-2-Axle-Pins-Traxxas-3654-/220578384916?cmd=ViewItem&pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item335b7f0c14
I run HPI Super Stars typically. I have some other 2.2" rears that fit as well, but I'm not sure on the brand (Kyosho RB5 maybe).

I never thought of using the traxxas hexes, I have some left over from my slash. I'm going to try that.

Any luck?
