FPR's 1st Mini-z Product!
Tired of having a locked front wheel from coming too close to the wall during the mains? How about having to flip those expensive lock nuts just so you wont have to worry about having it come off? Sick of having 1-2 degree change while cornering because you can't tighten up the lock nut? Fast Pace Racing's new product should help you eliminate all this!
A front wheel bearing spacer. This spacer sandwiches in between the front wheel bearing. Elimintaing the slop by tightening up the lock nut without having to back off the nut.
Part Number: MR0FWBS
How to install (please excuse my mint condition bearings):

Insert one bearing on the outside wheel:

Bearing in:

Then the spacer:

Then the inside bearing:

Install it back on your front knuckles. Tighten it all the way and you're set!
Precision cut and 100% Made in USA! Works GREAT with Machine cut wheel.
For more info, please send email to tj@fastpaceracing.com or peter@fastpaceracing.com.
A Special Thanks to Ray Leung for helping out with this product. You guys will hear his name more with our upcoming 2009 products!
Thanks for Looking!

sweet.
This will make the bearings last longer also.
In 1/10 offroad it increased bearing life tremendously.

Thanks Grant! I'm sure we're not the only once that thought of it. Heck! I even found out after releasing the product locally that a couple of my customers are running shims and brass bushing on theirs but it doesn't work as good as these.
Yes it will make the bearings last longer. Also, you'll know if your bearings are shot!
Doug: We can ship it. Please forward me your info through PM or email. Thanks!

The need for ultimate precision on a part like this, however, makes it extremely worth it. I'm getting a set; I will write about them on my blog here and the GSR site to draw you some additional attention, TJ.

At first I thought these spacers didn't do anything because I put the washer on the outside where the lug nut went. BUT these directions cleared up alot of confusion, works perfect on my 2wd. This spacer and a pair of kyosho lug nuts torqued in all the way spins free with no slop. If you want to fine tune your car's front end suspension, this product is a must have.
