Default Re: Silverado Dually in 1/14

trucker n post whoring all over the board.

I took a size comparison shot of the semi vs 60d tires unmounted:

And here is a comparison of the width after narrowing the 60d's to the semi tire:


Narrowed vs un-narrowed 60d's mounted:


Front clip from 18r seems to be a good width (shown with 18r wheel/tire):


I do have an issue with the stub axles though. Stock 18r's are to short so I had to order the 18t's (left)



Latest issue is that the stub axle is 4mm at the pin location and 3mm for the rest. I am not planning 4x4 yet but could add later. To mount up the stock semi rims I need two 3x11 bearings. McMaster only has 3x10. I found them at boca but they are 20 bucks a pop! Anyone know where I could get some cheaper?
