Default rear hubs

Anybody know if the rear hubs on an RC10GT will fit on a Losi XXX NT? Looking at some aluminum hubs at http://www.powerlineracing.com/index.htm
and would really like to try some. It seems to be a weak spot on my Losi. Unless it is meant to shear at that point? Any help would sure be appreciated!

Hmmm, let's see if I remember this right. The GT rims will work on Losi trucks, but the Losi rims will not work on AE trucks. Or is it the other way around....
Can't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure AE rims will fit your Losi.

I raced a XXX-NT for a while and never broke a hub. I broke a pair of lunsford Ti turnbuckles and a few ball studs but never the hubs. I can't be positive but I'm going to say don't buy them. I can almost gaurantee they will not have the same geometry.

ARRGHHH! Disregard my idiotic response. I was talking with my wife when I read your post and was thinking of something else.

Did a little bit more digging, and you're right. The AE hubs are the same size but are not off-set. This doesn't make sense to me. Why would Losi make a hub that you have to have right and left? Why not make them in line/ center like the AE ?

Even more adjustments to make. If you flip them around the rear wheels will have less toe-in and the wheel base will be slightly longer (or shorter, I forgot).
