For the rear Jconcepts or Proline b4.1 hexes work from what I have read. I believe you need to cut the pin a little smaller to fit the 12mm modification. Might need a few shims. The B5 rear hexes I hear work as well. Was somewhere in this thread.

Good luck.

I should really find out what wheels the local foam tire supplier is using and whether or not he can glue up a set on Durango wheels.

I understand that the v2 is able to mount the rear shocks either in the front or rear position. My question is, how would it affect the handling of the buggy with either settings?

I would probably make sure that I get the axle that has the built in hex this go around. Last time I used the slide on Jconcepts hexes and I went through a few front bearings by over tightening the front wheel nuts.

Make sure if you are doing the front axle conversion to hex you put the crush tube between the bearings.
TDR712003 is the part number. Pack of two. One in each side. No more binding, wheels spin free and no damage to bearing. No more loose wheel nuts.
