i've been running the same set of bearings untouched since i modded the hubs that came on the car. i've done upwards of 15 hours racing on the same rear bearings. so if your content to change them every second meeting then its your wasted money.
My modded om my 8T saw over 6 months of racing without a bearing change.
I dont want to sound like a rude prick, but im fair sick of it being called the J-DUB Hub Mod when it was my idea. It was me who found J-DUB to do it for you in the USA so i didnt have to ship them half way around the world.
I came up with this design back in April last year. So far i've had my idea ripped off by 2 mainstream companies (KH and Integy) who wouldn't even know who to thank for the money they have made off someone elses idea. J-DUB does a great job on the mod and i hold no grudge on him doing the work but even he will tell you its not his mod. I just didnt want people to have to pay for shipping from Australia
Losi made a massive mistake with the release of the 8T 2.0 with the 14mm bearing, and it took the commen racer to fix the problem. Not a pro or an engineer on a 6 figure pay packet.
The big companies have no problems stealing your ideas to line there own pockets but have massive problems giving credit where credit is due.
next time ill copyright the idea and charge them for it.
Anyway continue to contact J-DUB if you live in the states. He does an awsome job.
If you live in the Southern Hemisphere and you need the hubs send me a PM
Dont be tempted to waste your money on the aluminium hubs when the plastic ones will last forever.
I remember when you proposed the idea and wanted some one in the US to do it....i recommended J-Dub or wb-racer-ace and J-dub jumped on board right away.
No worries Tix the real guy's know what's up.
