Will the 22 4.0 front axles fit on a 2.0?

[HzR]

Hello all,


I'm struggling to find the front axle lug screws for a 22 2.0 since they've been discontinued. I don't like them much anyway so would like to replace them with nut setup.

A JConcepts axle conversion kit is also hard to find.
Will the front axle of a 22 4.0 (TLR232070) fita 22 2.0?


Thanks!

I replaced the 22 3.0 with the older 22 axle as my son's run the old cars. So I assume it will work the other way round

Cheers! I did find a few shops have one or two pairs left, but they seem discontinued. If the 3.0 version fits, I think I'll go for the 4.0 axle to make it future proof. It's only around 12 quid, and if it doesn't fit I'll make sure to stock up on bolts

The TLR front wheels went from 10mm to 12mm hexes for the 3.0.

Ah yes forgot about that all your wheels won't fit

Thanks for pointing that out. I haven't had the car that long, so I luckily don't have many wheels, but might make me reconcider.

also worth mentioning that the 3.0 12mm axles where steel where the 4.0 are aluminium

Just buy those 3 packs of screws they should last you

and use Locktite I found out the hard way...
But yeah, that's probably the easiest way to go.
