What wheels everyone running?

[crucialRC]

I have used silverback and L5t wheels w no problems but also use extenders

 

[jkoppk]

I run a 1 inch extender on each side in the back,stock up front.Any tires will fit with extenders.
got 195×80 on it now.

Is there an advantage to using bead locks vs gluing stock dish?

Yes there is ?.......gluing SUX????

 

[cbaker65]

Gluing is easy ,getting glue off is a pain when you go to change tires!....

I usually boil the wheel in a pan of water!

Extended looks ? must do it on my 5b??
How'd y loose one?‍

Honestly the oem pins seem a bit long especially after the o ring that come with the dark soul extensions are on. After I find a replacement I will probably cut down the pins to eliminate the "slop" per say. Like the pins are too long so it allows to much play in the o rings. Therefore it's easy to throw a pin
I'll get a pic tomorrow. Gotta tinker to get at least one rig back on road. Tomorrow case is fix rear diff on dbxl no lhs has pins for the l5b

When I got my baja the guy must've lost his pin too. He used a nail? Guess it got the job done??‍

Holly Fek?‍????‍ hey Zed you may learn a new hack????

 

[Jshaff16]

A brief peek while changing laundry shows may have a bit more damage than just a missing pin. Will pull It apart a bit later on. Hoping for today but need to get house back on order lol

 

[Seandonato73]

Yeah they are a pain sometimes. I don't think it would have been too hard to make a pin threaded at one end so you could loctite them in, instead or relying on a darned little o ring

 

[Jshaff16]

Even if the pin had a flat spot for the damn set screw to catch onto something would help

Naw I'd just use a nut and bolt, that guy was cheap as FEK ???
