Thanks Jason, I will report back here soon hopefully as spring is coming and the track is reopening. I haven’t had any track time for 15 years so you can be sure these parts will be properly tested :mrgreen:

Well that didn’t hold very long :shock: first flip and KAPOW!
I guess I need to find a better solution for rear hubs and universals. Might go the RPM/Dynotech route for the rear. Has any new solution been found recently with off the shelf/easy to source parts to use modern wheels?

do those rear hubs have the same geometry as the regular rc10 hubs? if they are, you can just ream the standard parts, hell, the re-release hubs are a loose fit on the standard bearings, so they might just work as is.

otherwise, with the metric axles, look into later b6/b7 and yomoko cars for a hub that might work, with a simple metric bearing.
