FURITEK BRASS REAR AND FRONT HUB SET COMBO FOR FURITEK FX118
Customer Reviews
The Furitek parts came with only the front set of weights 4 of them no rears.
when I contacted Furitek USA they did say there was an issue and asked that I send them back this is were it goes sideways.
They said I have to pay to ship them back as I live in Canada. So a $30.00 us part $50.00 Can would end up costing me over a $100.00 Can. by the time I sent it back and then paid to get it shipped back to Canada for faulty parts from the manufacturer. I have dealt with both Furitek and Furitek Canada in the past on other issues and in both cases they compensated me with a gift card for my inconvenience. Furitek USA said too bad so sad needles to say I will never deal with them again and anyone who askes me how there service was will not get a very good review from me.
Fit well easy to install
The plastic hexes rub on the outer front portal covers and I have to leave the wheel nut about 2-3 turns from being tight to keep the friction off of the front wheels. Bought two sets of brass hexes for this thing and neither set are right either. Another bad design and miss on an expensive upgrade. And let's not talk about the cheap plastic caster blocks that break super easy causing you to have to buy a metal axle.
I just got a set of the front & rear brass portal covers with front aluminum steering knuckles for my FX118 Fury Wagon so I could balance my weight more upfront. The fit & finish is excellent quality & do not have any slop once installed. Nice upgrade for more serious crawling.
I knew of the problem with the overdrive gears being to thick. Had to do some grinding. But it worked
I love them, well made & easy to install.
These items along with the steel drive shafts, added strength and weight where it was needed.
Parts are good quality, shipping is still way to slow
These brass covers added great weight down low where it's needed.
I only use the front ones, good craftsmanship and better weight distribution. Highly recommend.
