Hey!

I dug my Nitro Burner out for my daugher to play with, and came by this post.

Regarding the bearings - my axles have one standard nylon bushing on the outer end (against the wheel) and a different bushing on the inside end that clips (front) or attaches with a very small screw (rear). These inner bushings seem to somewhat support around the drive cup. Will the bearings you listed here replace the outer bearing *and* a second one will go inside and eliminate the inner "bushing," and/or fit behind it?

Edit:
I saw a parts page for an actual Nikko branded car. I think the knuckle and drive cup/shaft is possibly "cheapened up" on the Radio shack models. My outer nylon is 8x11x6.5 - the bearings above wouldn't replace this, and I don't immediately see ones that would. I'd esitmate you'd have to replace some extra parts to get this to work.
