the new T4 hex axles from JC allow you to NOT use the C clip setup of the AE axles. Correct? Is that the big advantage? I am asking because I already have JC front and read sc10 hexes, so if i can stay with the AE axles and run the sc10 JC hexes, I could save a few bucks for the hex conversion. Anyway, I posted this here because I plan to get the JC T4 hex rims, because they are sexy. And I need to be sure I will not be jacking up the offset with the AAE axles and the JC sc10 hexes.

Correct. It is a fresh axle design. For the T4 you would need the AE steering block #9880, JC axle #2170, and 2 of the SCT Rear Hex #2081 for front, and rear to keep the standard, legal vehicle width.

I ordered some Bro-Codes, I haven't gotten a chance to check them out yet. I was curious if they are marked so they can be mounted in the proper direction easily. I assume the lower side of the tread faces forward, correct?

Will the slash hazards work if i have the protrac kit? And this is for the 4x4.

Can you eleborate? I've seen motor spray mentioned on race reports. How are people using it on offroad tires? Spray and leave on to dry?

ok, time for the age old question. Removing tires from a rim.
I have a bad rim, tires are still in good condition though. I want to remove them and put them on some new hazards I have. I have in the past baked the tires off and soaked in acetone. I firmly believe that acetone is not great for the foams or rubber. What are your thoughts on the JC green compound tires and stock inserts? Bake or acetone? I really dont want to cut them off and reglue.
