I would really like to run 1/8th scale rims on my T3 it has traxxas axles. Is there any way to make adapters to do this.

YEs you can do this although I am not sure as to why ?
But here goes . its been a while so I am a bit rusty with the t-3 .
For the rear you will need a set of traxxas hexes, to go over the pin. a 12mm hex will work best. Then a set of the INET R/C 12 to 17 mm hexes. and a set of large washers to take up the larger space.
Now the front is a bit tricky. But here goes. (and this is only a guess), I would look for a set of axel shafts from Traxxas or something that is already drilled to accept a pin-style hub so that you can repeat the rear set up on the front. The hard part comes in figuring out what will work , or what you can make work. Either way you go about it . Its going to be time consuming and aggravating. And there will be a lot of trial and error.
Hope this will help give you a start. Paul

I am working on a piece to use in conjunction with a stock 1/8 scale buggy hex to fit on a traxxas axel(stampede).

That's what I need: a mad scientist laugh, and a hobbie shop that will allow me to experiment.

First off sorry for the double post.Second sorry Krazy about not PM'ing you last night but had something wrong with my conection . Third I am sorry due to costs I can't sell the adaptors for less than $30 as the sleeve is now made of aluminum and requires special pins that I have yet to locate.Ps I am only making $2.50 per complete set at this point and that price doesn't include the pins.

I have figured out the pin and found cheaper adaptors online . I can make you a set for $25 let me know if you want them.
