New Hubs for Zeon

Picked up some Eagle R31 rear hubs & C hubs for the zeon as Kazama's don't seem to be in production anymore, i never really liked the 13 degree C hubs i had for it always felt like too much castor to me. So i went with Eagles V2 r31 C hub that has plastic shims for adjustable castor you can choose between 8,12 or 16 degree i went with 8 deg.Then a just a set of their alloy rear hubs to finish off the alloy stuff on this chassis.

Modifying Cheap Parts

I picked up some Cheap R2 R31 rear hubs for the CE-RX.Im not usually a fan of their stuff as its just copies of companies who put time and money to develop quality parts but got these to modify and didn't really matter if I stuff them up.
So all i wanted to do was add more adjustability to the top mount
so drill
then tap
new thread

then touch the top of the tread with the drill to clean up 
done
The aluminium is so soft on this stuff i'll see how it goes,probably upgrade to something better.
Kinda pointless but I like to play around this stuff sometimes.
