Stretched e-Muggy (Baja-style) Build Thread

[thzero]

Thanks for the info. Be interesting to see how you jig it up.

Had thought about just using some 24mm Baja hubs, using a 8mm-12mm spacer, sorta like what you have here but it requires drilling a 4mm hole in the axle and at least with the RC8T, and the LST2 axles I believe too, axles there just isn't enough length to do it I think without losing strength. Drilling out the 3mm to 4mm (pin size for the 24mm hubs) I'm not sure would work either; it'd definetly mean grinding down the rear of the hex hub to get it where it'd be close to flush with the bearing and that wouldn't leave hardly any material behind the pin.

Might you be willing to do a set for others once you've finished yours and are satisfied? Have the 23mm from Integy from my RC8T, but ProLines are probably better, but as you noticed they (and the ProLines) are just a bit too wide but don't really have expertise to cut em down and get them dead on.

Part #6034-03.

The pins are 3mm. I actually use these hinge pins and cut them to length:

When I do some more, I'll take pics of how I did the drilling.
