Hey folks, im trying to find some longer shafts for my E90 wheels. Currently it's plastic running gear with poor alignment of the wheels. My plan is to add bearings to the wheels and use metal KT swing arms to reduce slop.

Whoever to let me get the correct alignment I need longer shafts than those on the king tiger metal road wheels, probably 5-7mm longer. Does anyone know if taigen or anyone else use longer shafts than those on the king tiger

I have some Tamiya king tiger shafts spare. Not sure if they are longer?

You could get these Taigen Panther arms and maybe create your own shafts if the arms length fits the tiger. I made my shafts for the M113 out of 3mm pins, 3mm flanged bearings, and 4mm aluminum tube overlay glued with epoxy to fit the panther socket. I was pretty desperate. Works well.

Ya know, Tom--

There's a much easier way of dealing with this vexing problem. Just get rid of this offensive beast, like your spouse would like, and voila--two problems solved. Emoji here as mine don't work. Otherwise, sorry I can't be more helpful.
