Wheel conversion...

[Rusty2903]

Hi,

 Right you lot, yet again i need some advice!!

I have just recieved a set of King Blackfoot "chrome" wheels, these, i'm hoping, can be modified to fit my MB.

Does anyone know how to "convert" them to fit the MB fitments?

 

Cheers, Russ

I had the same problem!!  (never solved it so didn't do what I intended  LOL)

what I heard though was put in the ball bearing and fill the edges with putty / glue

I don't know how well it would work with only one bearing though?

here is a pic

I think you will need wheel converters, ( sorry to sound so obvious!!)

I converted my Red Lunchbox to go from std LB wheels to hex fitting HPI wheels.

The converters/adaptors i used were included with the wheels,but im not sure if they are available to buy on their own.

Heres a pic of my Lunchbox Rear axle after the conversion.
