Wheels Spacers

[Kevin_Mc]

Where's the best place to get wheels spacers for a tl-01/tt-01, I haven't checked what size yet but they won't be much more than a few mm's?

Just anywhere that does hop-ups for example?

or

you can use thicker wheel adaptors

i believe standard tamiya adaptors are 5mm (may be wrong)

Those look ideal, thanks.

I'll measure them up and see exactly which ones I need.

I may be wrong here but have you tried putting an 1150 bearing between the hex and the wheel? it stands the wheel off about another 5mm and theres still enough of the hex fits in the wheel to dive it properly. I know i did it on one or two of mine and im sure they were just standard wheel hubs and you gain about 10mm of extra width

i haven't tried that yet, i'll have a look and see if it will work but i have a feeling 5mm is too much.

I have read that people have used the old 850 brass bearings on the hex to gain an extra 2mm width on each side. see http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...44&sid=9813

The TL01 came with optional wider hex adapters that are used on the Ferrari body. You then just need longer axles off the TGX cars.

There is a how to guide on the main site
