What should i pack the tires with. Tires are too soft, what is the chosen packing material?

You don't need to pack anything in them. Once built, they're not gonna sag…. Trust me on this.

You're overthinking too much on the little stuff… relax.

@Edbert Never considered that, if i ever do need to do it thats exactly what i will use.

@BlackSheepTwoOneFour I trusted you and you were correct, once together they dont sag. Thanks for the great advice.

oops i decided to make a color change and took took the tires off and snap. I will have to drill it and use a metal pin inside because superglue is not holding it.



fixed

If you do this kit just be careful with the axle, they are poorly designed. The end that broke off is only connected to the outer section. It does not go through the frame as it should for proper dually support. Its just a nub on the side of the frame.



This surprises me as so far revell has impressed me with its quality and instructions. What a bad place to not be quality, the axle.
