Triumph front hubs

Post by al.48 »

HELP !! Anyone built tmw-1 ? Triumph front hubs, silly question I know ! Thought I'd start rebuild by rebuilding front end .easy you all shout ! OK, the wheel shaft is smaller in diameter than the hole in the steering arm !
Ie shaft is 6mm hole is 8 . And the hole for the king pin in the hub is larger than the king pin, so its like a dick in a bucket ! Anyone else come across this? Cheers

Depends on the format of pack you want to install. Generally I don't buy battery holders for my cars but make something myself with left over parts or plain stock like spacers and scrap gf10

2 bodyposts, 2 clips, cut-down plastic T-strap and a piece of foam. The esc and receiver on either side stop the pack from rotating.

wing mounts - if you cant locate the triumph ones you could try to see if XXX buggy mounts are available .. they will place the mounting stud close to the same place on the wing but the tower mounting holes are spaced closer so you would have to drill 'one hole' each side to screw them on .. the conical-shaped wing mount top washers are an overlooked item to, if you dont have those i'd try to pick up a pair also ..
