Yokomo Wheels On B44?

[LTO_Dave]

I wasn't sure exactly where to put this, but I wanted to know if there are/were any wheel adapters available that would make it possible to mount the old-style Yokomo 4WD wheels on a B44? Team Suzuki, Hot Trick, etc.?

After looking at the B44 instruction on AE's website, I see it uses hex-drive front and pin-drive rear axles. Does anyone know what mm hex and what size rear axles it uses? So could I use rear RC10-to-Yokomo adapters for the rear and Kyosho-to-Yokomo hex adapters for the front or something similar?

Or is there anyone out there that has done this already? I'm really itching to buy a B44 and I absolutely hate the look of the 2.2" wheels. Plus, I think a B44 would look awesome with a set of Yoke dished wheels and pin spikes.

I don't have the tools or ability to machine/mill parts, so bolt-on's are what I'm looking for.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

the B44 uses some pretty deep offset wheels, you'd probably have to use late yz10 wheels (not 870c), so you won't really get a dish wheel without violating max width rules.

I beleive the hex up front is 10mm. you can use the rulux spoke wheels on the B44 which look sweet.

Thanks, man!

I'm not worried about width rules because I'm not racing.

I did find one place that lists the hexes as 9.5mm, so I'll probably have a hard time finding any adapters.


Anyone know the inner diameter of the Yoke hubs and axle diameter?
