Want to solve solve the sagging that the Traxxas black springs cannot solve? Go to your local Ace Hardware store and buy a pair of springs labelled C-704. If none are found, they are 1 1/2"x 1/2"x.041, and are about a $1 each. These solve the 'droopy rear' and front problem and are great for all around bashing, but I'm not sure about racing with them.

I also found a set of springs at the local Home Depot with the same specs as the C-704. (1/2''x1 1/2"x.041)
Only problem is that they come with another pair of springs that are useless for our purpose,(7/16''x2 1/8''xx.031), so you are paying for the extra springs.
Home Depot #759 796. Made by Everbilt.
Found them in the door hardware section.

Blue wide Clamp Type Wheel Hubs 1/16 $14.88

I ordered these, they will make the BBT fir on the E Revo 1/16 right?

this is what someone else said

"
Everybody that uses the BBTs with the stock hubs have to Dremel around the inner hex of the wheel to keep it from rubbing. Easy fix. If you get the HR hubs then you wont have to."

is it knuckles or hubs???

That's my quote. I've always called those hexes. What I meant by hubs is the hub carriers. I have Mugen wide hexes that work too. I dont know but the HR hexes look a little thin.

They are definitely known as knuckles in the HR catalogue DRIFTWOOF.

2.4 refers to 2.4 gigahertz or Spectrum radio

Thanks

I am not running these packs but I know a few guys that do. They had to shave a bit off the battery door for the wires to exit. Easy fix, works fine.
Pretty much any of the Hobbyking packs have large wires and will need this done.

Is it just me or do most of the Hot Racing images NOT work once you click on a product to see it in detail?
