Big brute wheel hubs close to shot

Post by lebowski770 »

Hello, I recently checked the plastic wheel hubs on my kyosho big brute and each rear wheel hub has 2 out of 4 pegs broken off... Does any one know of any replacement hubs that might work? I looked on ebay and found nothing... I wouldnt mind putting txt-1 style wheels on if the current ones are hard to find...

how about using some screws to fix it. Where the peg was, use a 3mm hex screw so that the head acts like the peg. You can also use regular screws...as long as the head is the same size as the original peg.

I found a guy who is willing to fabricate them out of aluminum for $60

There was a company called Maxtrax who produced aluminum ones but they're hard to find.
