First pack won't fit, as their measurements are off by 5mm on the thickness, or measurement C, I have three of them sitting here. Second pack may or may not fit, due to the width. Third pack fits, I have four of them.

The Second one should fit, its smaller than the other 2s packs.

I dunno, it's 1mm wider than the 2200's I run, and they're a tight fit. It might, but I'm not gonna be the guinea pig. Been there, done that

Since i had no batteries to play this weekend, i decided to work a little on my Merv. Wheels and tires Glued and mounted,and the velcro mod to do away with the body clips, much easier to take the body on and off. Looks like HPI-GUY's Twin.
Check out my "toe" issue can't for the life of me figure out whats going on, looks like its time for adjustable tie-rods and turnbuckles.

I like those wheels and tires. I might have to copy you guys and get a sent for my sons.

i really like the way they look, you really should use some different nuts on the wheels, with these wheels, they dont really catch the nylon well enuf to lock them on, i put loctite on mine , and you have to drill out the wheel to accept the MERV axles but its a simple upgrade that makes the merv look tons better.
You had any problems with the Toe on yours?

I think you can adjust the toe by adjusting your pillow balls to fix that. Truck is looking good buddy.
