Lamboguy59 Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Hi, Im getting the 9398 set and wanted lego power puller wheels for it and could pay for it in US money. Thanks, Lamboguy59 Quote
LEGO Guy Bri Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Have you checked Bricklink? They are VERY expensive though. It'll be tough to get them much cheaper Quote
Edwin Korstanje Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Buy a complete 4x4 old offroader set and the complete set in good condision are about a € 100,00, but not on BL and lose wheels and hubs are the same price Quote
DLuders Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 @ Lamboguy59: You could consider getting 3rd Party RC Tires for your 9398. They perform better than the Lego Power Puller tires, and look more realistic. Any 1.9" (48mm) Inside-Diameter (I.D.) RC tire will fit the 9398's standard 44772 wheels, if the tires are in the 37-48mm width range. Quote

Look for 3rd party tires, you'll love them;) and save much money:D Quote
davidmull Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Yes but power pullers are huge,a must have for any technic fan,my 9398 drives just fine with them,also I wouldn't have been able to build jurgens pf backhoe without them :) Quote
Technic Gearhead Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 Thank goodness I don't care for these with the prices they fetch! Quote

OleBM Posted March 22, 2013 Posted March 22, 2013 +1 Power pullers are too heavy for remote controlled moc. Too much load for any lego transmission. That's just a matter of building things right. If you mount them on a single axle each, instead of wheelhubs/turntables, I agree that they get a bit "woobly", but it's all a matter of building things rigid enough. But I have to agree that I like 3rd party tires much better! Quote

If you mean the Ansmann tires that efferman used, yes those are no longer available. However, you can get similar 1.9" (48mm) Inside Diameter (I.D.) RC tires in the recommended 37mm-48mm widths from various sources. The company with the best selection is RC4WD (which you could probably get online in Australia somehow). You can do an eBay search for "1.9 tire" and dozens of different types (and brands) will pop up. Quote

Wich should i buy first, the wheels, or the car? Im up to $75 out of $200. I will be reciving $100 soon... Buy a complete 4x4 old offroader set and the complete set in good condision are about a € 100,00, but not on BL and lose wheels and hubs are the same price I said american money $ (dollars) Quote
dandexter Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 In this day and age why does it matter what dollars it's being sold in? Quote
Lamboguy59 Posted March 24, 2013 Author Posted March 24, 2013 In this day and age why does it matter what dollars it's being sold in? Because im american. Quote
Someonenamedjon Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Because im american. That doesn't really mean much because you can just put it in the exchange rate thingy. Quote
CisFran Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 check you local listings / fleabay for 8466.. I got mine for only $60, for the complete set.. Quote
davidmull Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Because im american. You can pay in any currency, it will still convert to dollars or whatever you want. No big deal! I take it you never bought on line before. Edited March 25, 2013 by davidmull Quote

Here's a post about different tires that will fit the Lego 44772 Wheels, the same ones that come with the 9398: http://www.eurobrick...75#entry1339109 Edited March 25, 2013 by drofnas Quote
