i little bit of work but it costs about 7$ to do this mod to about 100 cars. you wouldnt believe how much it improved everything to do with the drive train. it is soo smooth.

How does puttying the axles permenantly in place help you do wheelies?

if you wanna wheelie without a wheelie bar and your putty, do my 3 cell mod, you wont be dissapointed. what dissapoint me though is that it likes to flip over alot which pisses me off.

wut kind of putty should u use

hogjowlz 01-25-2003 09:23 PM

i used jbweld. epoxy with metal in it. the tube is a qtip

Fast_Furious 01-25-2003 09:28 PM

when put putty on it u cant change axles...right?
cuz i want to change my axles evry once and a while and still do wheelies.
i have an R-Spec the fastest gears and hard tires and it still doesnt wheelie!!!

hogjowlz 01-25-2003 09:31 PM

well im also using 2 batteries. but no you cant change the axle very easily. i guess you could cut the epoxy. i think im gona have to reseat one of mine. im not happy with the tolerance. this is a very usful mod. especially if you have dual batteries. it runs much smoother.

Fast_Furious 01-25-2003 09:34 PM

well im not puting in a dual cell cuz i dont kno how to make a charger for 1

hogjowlz 01-26-2003 07:45 PM

ok it is possible to switch axles. i cut the top layer of epoxy off and you can pull the tube out and wedge it back in there. im probably gona put more epoxy over it tho.

Hogjowlz rather than cutting away the epoxy, u could pull a wheel from the axle and slip it off.

Then glue the wheel back to the axle after!

I only recommend this tho if uve done a 3cell mod, cos it loosens the wheel a lot ne way, I wouldnt do It 2 a nice axle!

just a thought!

hogjowlz 01-27-2003 07:36 AM

i could do that but id be afraid the axle would wobble. if i can find a metal tube that fits the axle perfectly i will have to do that tho.

scottyboyfun 01-27-2003 07:39 AM

Theres got 2 b a better way for theses axles.

Mayb a snap on/off axle holder?

or a peice if plastic that glues on,and can be snapped off easily.

So we could change the gears.
