I havnt been around much lately because i have actually been running these money pits. However on my truggy, my right rear tire wobbles like a bia. Its tightend all the down on the hex. Any suggestions?
 
bent axle?? pics?? pick it up and roll it slow and see where the woble begins at..
 
No, fresh axle. It's rolls unevenly. Almost as if rthe foam was uneven...
 
they may have came unglued.. (if there glued) or bunched up.. try masaging them to get it to go back to the right place.. or yo uwill have to unglue them..
 
It could be a messed up wheel or the foam is uneven, also check to make sure you tires are glued all the way around, i had a rock get wedged between the tire and wheel and made the tire wobble
 
do you mean the tire is wobbling back and forth, or is it up and down, making the car look like it has really strong hydrolics?
 
i had a lot of sand and gravel get in mine. took off the tire and i could have filled a sand box with the sand that was in there.
 
water in the tires will make it woble bad at speed.. we had to drill little holes in our tires to let the water out..
 
I think its the foam. There brand new bowties on bead locks..
 
Did you check the bearings? If one is bad it will cause wobbles.
 
if htey are on bead locks then take em off and reset the wheel on the rim....if you haven't done it..take your body reamer and drill a pinhole on the inside of the rim so water can get out too.....like 1 to 2 mm hole is enough..
