Guys,
how do you make 4 gear wheels tuck into the chassie?
are you replacing or shaving them down.

Paul I have cut wheels down by putting them on an axle and chucking them up in a Dremel. Then using a pull saw to cut them. Have also just sanded them down on a piece of sandpaper laid on a flat surface. Also replaced the oversized rims with ones of standard size which effectively narrows the cars width. Several articles in the tech tips section that address this.

I used the flat side of a craftsman bastard file to take down the inner side of the stock 4gear wheels.Sanding of the wheelwells & inside body panels gave enough room to tuck it all in nicely. Some file work on rear body mount dropped it down.When the viper drag donuts arrive there should still be room for them to fit under the ''Troublemaker'' Belvedere   |

You have discovered your own method. Here is some info. I posted on basic 4 gear setup that I included how I do it nitroslots.com/thread/2917/bear-creek-dragway-north-texas?page=56. |
