Are bearing wheels hard to find now?

[bozack]

So I have my B4.1 and was looking at getting new wheels/tires and seems like I can't find any factory bearing wheels, and insult to injury is the hex conversion is near impossible to find also (saw one pair of axles on ebay for $30)

anyone have any options for bearing wheels or are they made of unobtanium now also.

There are TONS of B4 wheels on the used market, as that was the standard for a whole decade... you might want to go this route

Otherwise, JC made some... proline made some... everyone had them, so shouldn't be that much of a grail hunt

good luck!

yeah I just did a quick look and thought I read elsewhere that they were not readily available new....in looking for the yellow associated part number it looks like they were sold out of most places or selling for a massive premium, then I looked for the parts to do the hex conversion and was equally dismayed....though if I am spending that money figure hex would be the way to go. Crazy how limited some of these items are.

If this works, it seems like a great deal:

is this based off B4 components? and yes that would be a steal if it fits.

[tecnica2001]

It fits on the RC10, 10t, and T2, anything above that needs the arms to be shaved a bit for it to fit

[Lonestar]

yes... but is your track LOOSE DIRT? Otherwise, doesn't work

found a shop in canada that had some of the hex axles in stock so ordered those, now just need the rest of the parts for the conversion.
