rear hubs....

[Garry Spice]

i know the ray speed hubs are the favoured item.and i know the world is outta
stock but ive found (after someone told me) that racers edge rear hubs are the same part.is anyone using them?????

[elvo]

Rest assured: yes.

[Lee]

Or a cheap alternative may be to use a xxx cr rear hub ;)

[jono83]

i have the racers edge hubs and they are spot on. Lee do the cr hubs fit straight on? or will they need modifying?

[Garry Spice]

silly question....i think i know the answer already but is there a uk stockist for these???

You will need to take off the inside edge to allow the shock to compress, but you have to do this on the rayspeed hubs anyway. I think other than that they should just slot straight on.:)

[jono83]

Yeah on my alloy hubs when using hole "A" the hub needs to be filed otherwise it jus pops the turnbuckle off the ball stud.

[grelland]

silly question: What's the problem with the B4 hubs?

[Lee]

Nothing at all but sometimes people like to be able to alter the height of the stud, those with the rayspeed hubs without having them machined down are actually altering nothing at all from the std ball stud position.

[ben]

Bit easier to dremmel the CR ones then? ;)

[millzy]

are the bearings for the b4 the same as the losi hubs??

[super__dan]

Yes.

CR hubs are longer than B4 ones so I think you lose the ability to change wheelbase. Tom will know as he runs CR ones.

I runs std ones, with the E speed hangers and the outer hub holes, the back is so locked in I rarely change much at the back and alter the front for balance if you see what I mean.

Gotta be careful when talking about putting studs in "A" holes.
Im sorry I'm such a juvenile.

[elvo]

Yes.

Not entirely. Just 1 washer instead of the usual 2.

Just about to order some Racers Edge rear hubs.

They do 1 Degree or 1/2 Degree

What do people tend to run on an X6 ???

Many Thanks

[super__dan]

They also do 0 deg I think, which is what you want really.

[_sleigh_]

The answer to that is 0deg, but I'm not sure how available those are.

I did hear Darren (DMS) mention he might have some Yokomo rear hubs which are almost identical to the Racers Edge/Rayspeed version, but they come in 0deg.

Hope that helps

Super__Dan is so Super__Fast :lol:

[B&H Racing]

Super fast answers, cheers guys :woot:

[MHeadling]

I was in DMS 2 weeks back and he had plenty there, I run Ray Speed ones and they are :thumbsup:, the Yokomo ones are the same I think but they may take a bigger outside bearing like the B44 but I may be wrong, ring Darren and he will let you know, they are about £32 but very bling!!!

[stegger]

Not sure if they Yokomo do a 0deg but the Yokomo ones i had were the 1deg ones with the larger outside bearing.
