So I want to get rid of my front hubs and use Jr Drag Wheels. Someone said that they make adapter to fit the banshee spindle. Most that I have looked up stated that they would not work for tapered spindles. Can someone let me know which adapter kit works for the Jr Dragster front wheels to fit on the banshee spindles.

Pretty sure Cotton is right. I went to a local bearing supplier and got exactly what I needed to make spindle mounts work on my stock tapered spindles. Maybe I just got lucky .

Or maybe the fuckers will fall off while I'm flying down the track. :confused:

Forgive me for not being knowledgeable in this. 

 

So if I buy a wheel for 5/8th spindles. I need to replace the bearing that comes with it, with one that will fit my stock spindle? 

 

Will I need a spacer since the jr dragster wheel is so small? Do it matter what side the spacer go on?

Thanks. Think im going to go the route of getting a single arm setup with 5/8 straight spindle. I need to lighten up front anyway. Thanks for all the input.

depends on the wheels.

My 10x2's wouldn't fit with just a simple bearing swap. I had to use spacers to account for the added length of the banshee spindle vs. a 5/8 Jr. Dragster spindle.

 

Jr. Dragster 5/8 spindles on left..  same wheels on banshee spindles that needed spacers on the right.  I'll snap a pic in a bit of the spacers that Alcoholbanshee made for me.
