They are real simple and easy to do. The caps are just snap caps epoxied to axial hub nuts used on the ax10. Link to axial caps To do this you need to replace the thick lock nut that holds the wheels on with a regular thin 5mm nut using some loctite. By doing that you will expose more axle shaft threads for the axial hub nut to screw on to. The axial hub nut would probably be enough to lock the other nut from coming off but I put loctite on just to be safe.

Here are some pics of today's progress. New chassis done, cab painted, and a good start on the bed lift and slide mechanism.

















Thanks for looking.
Travis
