Axial beadlocks
Hey guys, just signed up and love this site, lots of really good information. I race at my local club, but am having a problem with my axial beadlocks. I purchased the 40 series for my revo and they worked awesome, at least I thought until I snapped 3 axle carriers in one day. The inside lock is grabbing the a-arms and pulling the pivot ball right out of the carrier. Anyone know of any kind of 17mm hub extenders that will fit the revo. If I can extend the wheel out about 12-15mm, I will be able to clear the a-arms. Already tried the ofna 15mm extenders, but they were for 8mm axles, not the smaller axle on the revo. Thanks for any help.

RE: Axial beadlocks
what is the inside lock? and I used to pull pivot balls occassionally, your bigger tires are making them pull alot easier. buy sorm RPM knuckles (axle carriers), they have extra material at the back, where the pivot balls are. I haven't pulled one out since I got the RPM knuckles.
