The hexes on the front AKA wheels fit snuggly and I am using Avid serrated wheel nuts(they have aggressive serrations). The only way I can them falling off is if the hex spins in the wheel and twists the wheel nut off.

Wildcat these are the front wheels.

How'd you mount the wing? Did you cut off the nubs and drill holes for the 2mm screw?

Just use the wing mounts for the YZ-2, they bolt right on

Yokomo europe has lightweight center shafts, input shafts, and lightweight diff gears. It seems we are about 2 to 3 months behind in the us. Amain should carry those items bit obviously Europe is first. The cars are very popular there and the lightweight parts and hopups are grabbed up quick

AMain was an improvement for importation for Yokomo in the U.S., but you can tell there is no one that is focused on the product as their is no emphasis to carry the hop ups and maintain inventory.

I don't think that's the problem. Supply and demand and production runs are the main reason. Yokomo just doesn't sell offroad stuff. Drift is huge in japan. That makes offroad parts run less. Not amain fault it's just global supply and demand

It comes with the psm carbon chassis. It's made as a conversion. I may be wrong but I don't think it works on the stock chassis
