Cox Vega Funny Car - Rear Wheel Nut

Re: Cox Vega Funny Car - Rear Wheel Nut
I own a few of the metal chassis cars and the axle nut is 5-40. I would think the Vega would be no different.

Re: Cox Vega Funny Car - Rear Wheel Nut
Hey, corpoffroader, for what it's worth, I took
an acorn nut off of one of my funny cars and
tried it on a 5-40 bolt and it fit. Didn't seem
sloppy at all. Moral, Ken knows of what he speaks.
I priced 5-40 acorn nuts, and you don't want to go
there. Of course your luck may vary.
If you are working on a runner, there's always this.

Good thought.
Tether cars are fun to look at not so much fun to run. C/L - R/C puts you in the action.
