Hey everyone, I 've heard that you can use traxxas part# 6869 to widen stance by 10mills per wheel, using the stock wheels. Any thoughts??? Thanks.

Widening typically increases the force and wear and tear on the axle and bearings.

Looking at the dimensions I would imagine it would work though.

doesn't the 3s BLx trucks use a 14mm hex?!?.

If so, no extenders will work because nobody else uses a 14mm hex.

Yeah, it does. Thats such a odd size. Thanks anyway!

Yeah, the only option would be to upgrade wheels/tires which is a fairly expensive proposition these days.

I agree. Thats kinda why I was looking for wider hex's.

Is there a 12mm hex adapter for these I know 17s are stronger but I'm running 4s in my Slash 4x4 which leaves my arrma wanting , and I use fastrax wheels which have a lot of variety and more cost effective ,plus it gives you the option to change your wheels when going from grass to road use without having to buy yet more wheels ? if you already have as I do a drawer full of wheels and tyres
