a brass tube would be good,it wouldnt hinder the movement of the axle.

i know that a metal tube would work best. the hard part is finding one that is the right diameter. you dont want it to be loose or the axle will wobble alover the place.

Try a rc model shop,My1 sells all sorts of tubing,right down to the small stuff.

hmm. good idea.

Hogjowls, since you're already tearing your chassis apart, why don't you try this experiment for me.

Get a brass tube that fits the axel snugly, it's ok if it slows it down. (let me finish;) ) Get some bushing grease from your hobby shop. Green Slime is good stuff, but Associate, or Team Losi stuff is good. The key is the Teflon. Then take a spare axel, and put it in your drill. Coat it with thegrease, and spin it in the brass tube, to break it in like you'd break in a bushing. Then spray out he tube with motor spray, or WD-40 to clean out the metal you've worn away, and run your car with your axels greased.

See if that works. Should be super smooth, if it works out like when I broke in the bushings on my 1/10th scale cars

that was the plan from the beginning. the hard part is finding a metal tube that is the right diameter. i dropped teflon in the plastic tube already.

how can the axles move if theyre stuck..?

they aint. they are inside of a tube. why cant anyone read?

Does it run well hogs?

ohh...
 

ohh..sorry..:rolleyes:
