very nice. i have the lrp 32 on one of mine. still brand new as well as the truck.
anyway. the rival hexes seem like they will work. you would just need to sand off a little nub on the back of the hex. the pin almost slides through as it is, but i tried it on stock hubs,rpm hubs,and golden horizon hubs. same thing. thats with stock axles. one of my trucks has mip cvds with rpm hubs and they work perfect. you still need to put a nut at the end of the axle though with the rival hubs. best part is associated has the hubs on sale for 4.00.

I was able to track down which hubs i have on my 8.0. they are integy. they still sell them,a little pricey though at 35.00. part # C22927

Ok thanks, is the integy hub direct fit?

yes. slide the pin in the axle, then put the hub on and tighten the hub inner nut.

Can anybody help me identify this chassis. Stopped in a hobby shop today and they had this there. It was a customers truck and I’m trying to grab it.

99% sure That would be a hardcore racing chassis very rare...

That’s what I was thinking. I want that thing so bad. Lol. It’s sweet looking

 

[D3MON]

Is it someone not sure on selling it? Or priced too high?

 

[BLOWN281]

they aren't sure if they wanna sell it.

What do you think it’s worth?

 

[BLOWN281]

Got the rival hexes fitted finally.

 

[D3MON]

What do you think it’s worth?

Whole truck? For me, If it came with no radio, probably around 350-500, Depending on life of the engine. Chassis alone? Probably better that 100$ upwards to $200 if only just for rarity sake. Personally wouldn't spend 500 on the truck but I'm cheap

 

[D3MON]

Ordered some of those hexes too, gonna try seeing if I can make em work! Truck looks nice!

Yeah I was kinda gonna offer him 200-250 for the truck. It’s got some useable pieces on it. I’d never pay 500 for it. I’m cheap too. Lol
