Pan Car Hex adapters
I need some hex adapters for a pan car. Specifically for the rear of an Associated RC12i. I think I can rig some rustler fronts or worse case Tamiya F103gt front but the rear has me stumped. I asked Google and Ebay and they turned up nothing.
My goal is to use touring car wheels and tires on the chassis. thanks |
BRP used to make those, the part #'s you'll need to try to find some are in the third post of this thread: http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...s-pan-car.html

There is a couple of issues with the idea you propose. The first is the size of the tire relative to the bodies that will fit on a 1/12th scale. There are very few bodies made for that sized car that use a 1/10th scale TC tire. There was some Yokomo and another mini sized car that used 1/10th scale wheels and tires but the width may be different so even if you find one it may not fit. The other issue is that a pan car is going to handle really poorly with TC tires and rims.

Thanks for the help guys!
I already have the chassis and the body and the wheels, so I know what's going on. I'm building a homemade version of the cars like the Kawada M300GT and Yokomo GT500. Next step is to figure out how to put a 380 in there. |
Im sorry......you asked google and eBay? Are they people you talk to or what?
|
I got a response from Bud quickly, unfortunately it was, "Sorry no longer have them."
Anyone else with any other options? |

I've been trying to find a supply of tyre caps to run a 12th on a low grip surface. So far no luck, if anyone knows where to look I'd appreciate it if you could tell me. |
The rear axle for an HPI F10 will work
|
Great idea! I was thinking Tamiya F104 but HPI parts are always cheaper than Tamiya. I think there might be a difference in bearing size but I think I can rig something.
|
Actually thay are the same. I went the other way and put a pan car axle in the F10...You may need to dremel the axle for width and put a new flat spot for the set screw since it's 1-12th scale over 1-10th
Tamyia uses a different size hex ...won't go with the standard TC rim.... |
Tamiya F103GT hexes are 12mm and will accept standard TC wheels.
The problem is the bearing size, metric vs. standard on the HPI. |
@pejota:
Do you want to sell that axle you removed? |
i think you mean scootr117
