I ordered these because I had to destroy my stock ones getting the bolts out and Redcat hasn't had them in stock for more than 2 weeks and running. I wanted to eventually get them anyway but after I had broken my stock parts driving! Oh well...glad I "had" to get these! Amazing quality, improves handling like nobodys business! I have run these and hit walls and doors with no issues. I have videos posted on Youtube under Dirtconvert. You can see me hitting stuff...lol. I will be getting on board with the rest of the cadre of parts from 7075rc and will not hesitate to tell anyone considering parts, consider his first. Just my two cents. :D

Received my 7075RC front bearings and the RampageHopups C-mounts, figured I'd add to the thread for those wanting more pics. Total installation required milling spacers for the c-hubs due to their large diameter bore. I scratched the crap out of the square wheel hubs with them being seized up so bad. Had to heat them up with a torch pretty good. I recommend if you plan to install these, and you desire to have the Baja wheel hex adapters, then do them at the same time. Once you loc-tite on the square hubs, it's a female dog getting them off. Stock c-hub all jacked up, next to new c-hubsIMG_0088.webpIMG_0092.webpStock bearing vs 7075RC bearing, lol.IMG_0093.webpBoth installed, up on the customer milled steel post stand with ball bearing swivel.

Im gonna end up having the exact same steering set up as you. Baja wheel hex adapters, redcat metal c-mounts and 7075 steering. Question, does this set up use the same spacer/bushings for on top and bottom of c-mount?
 
Imminent, In your earlier post you stated "Total installation required milling spacers for the c-hubs due to their large diameter bore".... I have no metal working equipment, nor know of anyone with a machine shop... what else would you recommend? Thank you....
 
Bobvic sent me a PM the other day as I missed this thread reply. I let him know the stock bushing work perfectly. Thought I'd reply here in case others wanted to know. Nylon / synthetic flanged bushings work well from ACE hardware as well, just trim to fit.

Yup I'm using black nylon flanged bushings from Ace hardware also with the Redcat alloy C-hubs and 7075RC knuckles. The work so well I bought like 6 of them just to have as replacements.
