does anyone else think that these really sucked for the nitro stampede--i went back to the stock setup, and added metal outdrives--i could not even get my rims to fit on well, and if you tightened them to much--they would bind--bad job mip--maybe i am doing something wrong

i had the same problem with my cvd's. if you file a little off of the hex drive adapter and a little more from inside the wheel it should give you slightly more clearance. i also got rid of the old nuts that held them on and bought some brass nuts that are a little bit narrower. also use lock tite.

got steel out put yokes first and loved them and never had problem. But the Mip stinger pipe always used to slip off. Finally got a bracket to hold it on. But does anybodies mip pipe slip off their truck?

hey i had the exact same problem with my cvds

but today i picked up a pair of the aluminum hexes and they worked awsome

i was able to tighten the tires all the way without them binding

i also had a problem with the set screw not holding well even with loctie--theycam undone, and i was spinng my tranny and no tire motion

also---the guy who has three nitro pedes--just out of curiosity-Why?---do you have them all setup differently---i wanted to get a second one, just to try the clod tire setup--do you have all tree setp differently?
