Thanks! So I take it there's nothing mechanically preventing them from working on the B3 (no rubbing against parts etc.), just a difference in the overall geometry?

If it goes too deep, it might rub eg. lower shock end etc.

Biggest difference is offset. B4 wheels sit narrower than B3.

I am thinking of a project using a rc10b3 I picked up. I measured the rear width at ~225mm, from the outside edge of the wheels, and the front at ~245mm. Is there a way to narrow the front to match the rear width? Moreover, is there a way to do so while converting to 12mm hubs? Have you tried B4 (b...

Those CW spacers are 0.125". I'm running the thin nylock wheel nuts and there is almost exactly 1/8" of thread projecting past the nut. As such, the 0.25" spacers would not work in this application. Good info. I sounds that going past .125 spacer, you would need extended barrel nut f...

Nice paintjob. I did get some influence of it when painting body for my JQ eBuggy last spring :) https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/ACtC-3cjZBHRgXc11Bc6PaO_43AgduI_jsormzMrTpL3-SsreJi7tOeN-m-ziMpLltApZDxgMTFL_qlmvtd0EJYI6ZgWBpSgsirjK7DnYOrFoWpNlCAil1chsMXhk4XuMxC57PDGpufXo6GQvkdV3CCcz6ILjw=w885-h8...

I already ordered aluminum tubing and since I’d need 2 on each wheel ($50 in parts) I’ll try fabricating my own with dremel and files. Yeah, little bit dremeling and fabbing is the essence of this hobby :) (there are also wider .250 spacer available from custom works https://www.customworksrc.com/p...

Yep, exactly like that. What is the diameter of the axle hole? I’m not familiar with the Dominator, Enforcer, etc. I don't have any experience, but I have seen those used many times in this forum. Those seem to work with 3/16 axles. https://www.google.com/search?q=custom+works+spacer+site:rc10talk....

Something like this? https://www.customworksrc.com/product/rear-wheel-spacer-125/

Both are for B4, but for different bone.

apologies if this is where you got the info and you know all about it already: check this listing over, it appears its the same build list you have there. this is from Niki's rpm style build, he does mention the wheel nuts fall outside of 250mm width https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&...

After replacing the axle with old axle from my parts Procat (and upgrading from 13.5t -> 7.5t) haven't had problems yet.

First thing I broke racing my re-re (first race and 1,5 laps done) was front drive shaft.
