Posted March 21, 201311 yr Hi, Im getting the 9398 set and wanted lego power puller wheels for it and could pay for it in US money. Thanks, Lamboguy59
March 21, 201311 yr Have you checked Bricklink? They are VERY expensive though. It'll be tough to get them much cheaper
March 21, 201311 yr 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
March 21, 201311 yr @ 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.

Too much load for any lego transmission. Look for 3rd party tires, you'll love them;) and save much money:D
March 22, 201311 yr 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 :)

The link in the OP of that thread is dead now, anyone got a line on where to get these now? Edited March 22, 201311 yr by dandexter
March 22, 201311 yr +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!
March 22, 201311 yr The link in the OP of that thread is dead now, anyone got a line on where to get these now? 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.
March 24, 201311 yr Author +1 Power pullers are too heavy for remote controlled moc. Too much load for any lego transmission. Look for 3rd party tires, you'll love them;) and save much money:D Sariels worked just fine, i planed on replicating his moc. On bricklink, yes, they are expnsive but i could aforrd them. 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)
March 24, 201311 yr Author In this day and age why does it matter what dollars it's being sold in? Because im american.
March 25, 201311 yr Because im american. That doesn't really mean much because you can just put it in the exchange rate thingy.
March 25, 201311 yr check you local listings / fleabay for 8466.. I got mine for only $60, for the complete set..
March 25, 201311 yr 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, 201311 yr by davidmull
March 25, 201311 yr Author 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. Not much. At least not on bricklink. :D True patriotism. Yep. :D
March 25, 201311 yr The link in the OP of that thread is dead now, anyone got a line on where to get these now? 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, 201311 yr by drofnas
