Can the WO univ bits be bought individually?
 
Hi guys

ive been searching, but i havnt been able to find the bits that make up the universal sets sold seperately

thanks

Which bits specifically are you after?

The driveshafts/axles themselves can't be bought separately but the pins etc can!?

thanks dave, you've answerd my question, mainly thinking in terms of the axles, actually, what im really thinking is trying to find a substitute axle with a longer thread on it, this wheel nut problem is an issue, i put brand new nuts on it, the loosen, associated 4mm nuts loosen also, im getting some with the serrated backing, if they dont work, i want a back up plan, an axle with a longer thread is one of my potential solutions

I doubt longer axles are the solution.

Threadlock (blue) on them works well.

Ahh simon, ur right, i'd read that somewhere a while ago, then forgot about it, threadlock is definately another solution

Axial M4 wheel nuts work great! (AXA1045) They have a good amount of nylon in them and do not need replacing very often.

get the serrated wheel nuts mate. they aint budging:thumbsup:

i have serrated wheel nuts on their way too, my feeling is the problem is a little worse with losi wheels on the rear because they dont have a nice flat area where the nut sits, but the other thing is really the thread is short on the axle, so not muck of the nylock come into contact with the thread, on the losi's, especially in the rear there was always lots of thread to spare
