metric rear rc10 hubs

Post by JosephS »

I happened into a set of bones and axles that look like they fit a 10t, same length as stock side by side, but the axles are metric. Are there any hubs that would be close enough to the same off set and height, but are metric? Something like ruster/slash hubs?

I had some B6 hubs but they are very wide compared to the original rc10 hubs.

I've not had awesome success enlarging bearing guides in stock associated nylon in the past. I may try it for this low class build, but I'd rather just buy a part that would work

Look to a kyosho or Tamiya car, or possibly yokomo. They might have something with a closer offset than the newer cars

This is a Traxxas carrier beside one from a 10T. They are the common 2WD version from the Stampede, Rustler, Slash, and others.

It isn't perfect but could probably be made to work.

You can also mix and match 3 and 4mm thick bearings to shift the axles one way or the other (this is an older 8mm bearing version but the newer ones use 11mm bearings).
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

Awesome. Thank you once again. You should be running a hobby shop.

it looks like the Losi sct 22.0 hubs work as well.
