Was wanting to know if someone can help me?

I saw a photo of a truck with dual rear wheels,

But have never seen them for sale. I want some

for a King blackfoot...

Can anybody help?[:D]

Thanks everyone, there are some Imex ones which

look like i saw! Ill have a look now I know what

they are!

thats the ones!

Can anybody tell me if the clod wheels have the the same 12mm hex

drive as the blackfoots and will fit?

Im after some wider rear tyres, Traction is low....

Also can anyone suggest a motor for these,

i wanted a kyosho magnetic mayhem but tower says discontinued..[:P]

Oh sorry about that, I was thinking about a different dually lol.

The mayhems are not discontinued I believe, it's just that Towers stop selling Kyosho products. I would go with some lathes for super torque! And I am pretty sure the blackfoot have the same 12mm hexes, but aren't these clod duallies a bit too big for a blackfoot?

I have both Lathes motor and a Graupner 600. If you want a some more speed with the torque, the Graupner is the way to go. The Lathe motors are made for use in the comm lathes, they are super torquey and really slow (55T), they are around $20USD each. The Graupner was more expensive for me since I bought it at the LHS, for $50CAD.

I have never heard of either of these motors! Might be hard to

get in australia, but ill look into it!

Lathe one sounds too slow. I still have to out run my dogs!!!

I have the Graupner in my TXT, it's not that fastest mainly because of the weight of the TXT. But pretty torquey! I think with this motor in a lighter truck, it will be much faster. Here's a pic from a while ago of the Graupner on the TXT transmission.
