Default X-5 (& XX4) front hex upgrade

Hi guys,
Thought id post this here, looked for older posts about hex slippage and can;t find any to add to...

Many may have striped the hex inside Losi front wheels, making them useless. Well now we have a cure, in the form of B44 hexes.

These Hexes are deeper, so will be more reliable than stock Losi items, they are a direct replacement.

The added width does make the front end wider, but I believe with Losi wheels the car is still within width, but with Proline B44 wheels (with deeper hex socket) the offset is recovered again.

Also, AE have done some ultra low profile nuts, so the wheels are locked on properly. I am using Losi low profile nuts still which are new, and seem to lock, just, but id like to recommend the AE ones for added safety.

Chris
