yea i included that 2 posts up.. tried them aswell and they still stuck out the gaurds 3/8... that was the best i could get...using the front wheels was worse. and that was using the thinest hex i could find aswell.


does anyone have the measurements of how long B4 front and rear and GT2 rear arms are.... i want to try and play with a few wheel and tyre combos keeping the width under the body

Some people were having trouble with them not fitting well. I added an extra shim when built mine and I have not had any problem. It also tightened the pins against the axle, so I am not having problems with the rims either. (I did use JB weld on the rims on them before running as well)

The dog bones will work ok for a little while.but once they get some slop to them they will start to hang up and got bound up or pop out.just better all around performance improvement i think too.

When the bones wear their little groove in the axle slot, flop sides with the axles and start wearing em out on the other side.
Thanks for the tip Fox. Too obvious for me to see:nod:

yeah dog bones also have twice as much slop as a cvd does.so it diffently performs better with the cvds.anything with less play will perform better.

The upgrades are the CVD's but there not cheap and not foolproof.
