Hey guys,

I have bought some after market wheels for my BFX but they foul the steering knuckles. I've made up some hex washers which fit fine and sort the scrubbing problem, the issue now is that I don't have enough thread on the ends of my axels to screw the M4 screw on to keep the wheels in place!

What I really need is an axle that is exactly the same as stock but with a longer thread on the end so I can get enough grab on the screw to have a safe tightness.

Any ideas? Are there any aftermarket companies that make these or is there a home made way that I can cheat with?!

I ideally want to make these for the front and rear wheels so the spacing is the same. I realise the rears could be more of an issue because they actually drive the car...

Many thanks!

Alex

Get two pairs of 50808 TG10 long axle's, plus some 12mm think hex spacers from either TT01 D sprue, M03 toe in rear uprights or M04 A sprue, there are a couple of other that have these too, but I can't think of them off the top of my head.

That should sort you out :)

Don't worry that the stock front axle design is different, they will still fit just fine.

So if I buy both sets of these......I should be fine...

These are the wheels I bought BTW...
