Big Rock What parts are needed to add a 17 mm hex set up?

[basher27]

Looking to add the 17 mm hex wheel set up, but wondering what parts I need? I included some screenshots to see if these are all the parts needed to convert to 17 mm. Is there anything else I missing? Thank you.

As long as you have the screw for the axles stubs (which should come with the hexes from Jennys), you'll be set. Just keep in mind that you will need two (2) packs of axle stubs if buying from AMain or another hobby store.

Also, the Kraton/Outcast 4s 17mm hexes are the same as the Typhon and might actually be $1-$2 cheaper ... weirdly

The v2 outcast/ Krayton??
I checked and they have different part numbers not sure if that means the part is a little different?

You could do something like this as well and will give it some extra width. I've been pretty happy with mine.

These short 17mm hexes
And
These wide 17mm hexes from AliExpress fit also. They are about 1/4" wider each.

Yes, the V2 Krayton/Outcast 17mm hexes will work. Different part number, but they are functionally and physically the same.

I went this route cause it adds width to the suspension. 10mm on each side. Well on my v2 anyway. I pretty sure you can on the v3.

I’ve bought the parts mentioned just to find out that the Typhon 3S axles do not fit Big Rock V3 slider driveshafts…the pattern on the axles and shafts is different…

Does that mean that I also need to buy a whole set of Typhon 3S slider driveshafts?

If this is the case then I’m a bit confused as Typhon and Big Rock refer to the same part number for driveshafts…

Any help would be much appreciated.

Might be too late but with these adapters you need nothing else but 17mm wheels

Thanks for the tips! Forgot to mention that I’m in Europe and M2C is kinda hard to come by :/
