You can't install the hexes incorrectly ........it's just not possible. :confused:

Anyways, alum. hexes are available from various vendors, search around or just get the "option" Itsy Bitsy hexes for 1:10 wheels.

...in a pinch you can cut one out of an old eraser and coat it in superglue to harden it..it will get you to your next step anyway :D

I actually bought the knuckle set today at Ultimate (broke the stock right one already...yesterday).... and it came with four hexes... I was going to donate... but since you found yours... I'll save them for spares...:)


I guess I'll get the alloy ones eventually... I told myself that as I break stock plastic I'd replace it w/ aluminum.... and only then

oo...i might get aluminum knuckles and such...but not like aluminum arms...or diff cases or nothing like that....this car is already heavy!

actually... Maxxenitout is kind of a big guy..... so no ass-kicking happened... he left them on his kitchen table... and I ninja-stealth, backflipped through an open window... hung from the ceiling fan until he went to sleep.... grabbed the hexes... then "poof".... threw down a smoke ball and vanished...
