If you run 3S- for sure a must-have upgrade for the slash 4x4. 17mm hexes never ever strip, neither do the rims. You also should run 1/8 buggy tires because they last waaaay longer than 1/10 SCT and MT tires AND they only flare about 1/4 inch AND they dont come unglued because the glue bead design is way better on 1/8 buggy and truggy tires. Glue bead design sucks on 1/10 tires for some reason. Yes they are taller tires than SCT(about same height as 1/10 MT tires) but narrower and lightweight. Proline makes 17mm hex SCT wheels if you want to stay within specs.I had my slash for over a year before i tried these, should have been my #2 upgrade after m6 shafts but nobody explained all these things to me at the same time.
Everything is fine. Delivery on New Year's holidays is almost 2 months.
These are the only way you can run a 8th scale power system in your 10th scale car reliably.
These adapters are strong. I have been running them for 8 to 9 months with no issues. Also note that you must have tekno cv's for these to work.
All four reviewers rate the Tekno 17mm M6 driveshaft hub adapter set 5/5 and report no problems in use. Owners describe the adapters as strong, with one running them for 8 to 9 months without issues. Reviewers say they are needed for an 8th-scale power system in a 10th-scale Slash, and one reviewer on 3S power calls them a must-have upgrade. A reviewer notes that Tekno CV driveshafts are required for the adapters to work. One reviewer also gives general wheel and tyre advice (17mm hex wheels, 1/8 buggy tyres) that is not specific to this product. One review mentions a delivery delay of almost two months over the New Year holidays.
