front axles
 

hi

not to impressed with having to grind down the front axles so it would fit in the box at the worksop meeting i need to grind more off but need some low profile lock nuts whats everybody using ?

cheers paul

I'm using hotbodies serrated nuts.

I use Core RC serrated nuts

Any ideas if there are new ones coming out to satisfy 'The Box'??

New what? :confused:

God damn new front axels Mr North. Did your Durango fit in the box without the need of a dremel??

i don't think they'll bring new axles out im off to get myself a dremel i thought them days where over after getting rid of the x6 !

Andy will have some core low profile nuts at Worksop Sunday Lads

they need dremelling down too :(

I don't think so as the clue is in the name, they are Core low profile

i have them on my car it still gets stuck in the box

is it getting stuck with the tyres or axles.

Did you try the box with no wheels on?

it's getting stuck on the axles / wheel nuts yes the wheels were on

Did you try the box without the wheels, as the schewy rubber hangs over the rim more one way than the other. If you glue them with the writing to the inside then they don't hang over too much

It's not the rubber fouling......

G

nothing worse than getting your rubber fouled and chafed!!! :woot:

i have the writing on the tyre to the outside and the wheel nut sticks out another 2 to 3mm ish past that when it's in the box you can hear metal on metal rubbing so it is the axle/wheelnut catching

i would have had loads, ordered 200 nuts, will be £1.50 for 4 or £2.50 for 8, but my supplier let me down and not getting them till monday.:thumbdown:

mine fitted in the box using these and my dremel.

there were some not very observant durango owners at the worksop do then ;)

It is annoying, I had to do it for the F345's. Its borderline at the moment. but just about passable. Spent more time getting it legal, than concentrating on set-up. lol

to be fair, on a car costing £450, it should fit in the box, no dremmeling at all...
