I want to upgrade my buggy so I can run 12mm hex on all four corners. What all will I need to do this. The reason why is there is just way more options with 12mm hex. Any info and help would be great.

To be honest I've never had to use any hexes before on my cars. I'd assume you're looking at trying to put off road tires or on road rubber tires on it and not foam carpet tires? I'm not sure what to do about carpet tires because I don't do carpet racing (yet lol

). Either way in terms of hexes on the front corners like on my slash or something, you would need to put on everything from front spindles to front hubs. In fact I'm just about to try to put my traxxas slash front tires on my rc10 as well so I'll be putting hexes on my car too. I'll post up a list of needed materials if it works.

rc10johnny is right on the money.
SC10RS front carriers, knuckles, axles, pins, hexes. For the rear, just get some HPI hexes for the 1/4" axles, done.

No dave i will still run my grooved foams or just straight foams which will adapt to any wheel as long as you cut the inner bead off of it and then proceed to slide or work it over the outer bead. I may try a rubber street track or similar tire but will most likely stick with foam. The tires that are in the pics is the sames tires I raced my last dirt oval race with. They work great and grip like crazy. Ill tell you know even though I broke (again) if it wasnt for the dirt oval guys on here (RC10talk) I wouldnt have made it to the main. I am wanting to get me a dirt lm body from Gary and then have it painted, and Have the stock car but I am wanting some hpi 6mm offset stock car wheels and save the stock 90's rc's for the LM. You guys see what I am wanting to do?
Also who has the fairest prices on painting a body?

FK YBR AND THEIR BS!!!!!

How do you remove the pin from the stock short A-Arm? I have not been able to remove it on these or the old one that I sent Thunderstrike.

remove the grub screw, and push it out. Might not be able to see the set screw, it might just look like a hole.
