anyone with tmaxx experience...please help
ok....i have alot of play where my universials,go thru my axle carriers....i can tighten all i want and the tire still wobbles.....i am using 17 mm axial beadlockers....wich isnt the problem.....and i have the rpm axial carriers....i have links below to what i have st up on my truck....when i put the new axle carriers on im pretty sure i used the oversized bearings that came with the knucks.....but still lots of play....i may have for some reason used older bearings,trying to conserve where i can....but cant seem to find a set of these oversized bearing in my stuff,wich leads me to believe i used the new oversized ones.....anyway,apparently i cannot just get the bearings,i have to buy all the axle carriers again.....anyone with tmaxx experience have any advice,or where,or how big i need bearings....or anyway to fix this play/wobble going on?
anyway these links are what i have on my truck right now.

a little tire wobble is normal.
your problem lies in the axles that come through the spindle.
that little pin that goes trough you wheel axle is too far from the bearings which wil give you tire wobble. you get it on all traxxas cars/trucks.
i have a revo and a rustler that do that also. all you can do is balance your wheels so you dont really see it while driving.
i also found out that you cant drill another hole in the axle to comensate for the slack.
its about a half of a hole off, if you understand what im trying to say.
