not sure about the knuckles or if losi is making lcd's for the xxxs

Have you tried them in the XXX-S. Are the stock springs too shock or can you get away with it by using AE springs?

Yesterday, Todd Hodge said they were packaging up the new arms and would be sending them out soon.

He had them on his 19T and mod cars that ran both rubber AND foam tires for this weekend's Region 12 Carpet Championships at Gilroy...And he won both classes. The arms looked great and will make the BK/PK brackets passe.

His front upper camber links were also fabricated fairly nicely.

Exactly! Most of it is made from a lower front arm.

Absolutely!

But, I still hold some hope for the current design with the new arms and the new front links.

PookyT...Get your Dremel ready...

Ready and Will'n !!!!!!!!!!!

I have one side of the camber mod done so far. I will have both side done for next weekends race.

2 races ago I tried the 6 deg. front hubs and love them. Last race I put in the 8 deg. after the first heat and ran them the rest of the day. To me the 8 deg. hubs didn't add or take away any steering but smoothed out the steering over all. I hope this helps guys. Personally on the asphalt I like the 6deg. the most because it gave me a little bit more of the aggressive feel I prefer. Try them both as I like the 6's and 8's better than the stock 4's.

You will be surprised that you only need 1 extra set of front arms and 0 deg. front castor blocks to make these. You will need to get 2 more front outer hinge pins. I'll try to post pics this week when I get mine finished.

No its the "old" one with no ms or msx stuff all stock. The car has been run twice at the track. The only thing you would need to be competitive would be a good driver lol and maybe the LW arms and towers other then that I don't think the new stuff would be night and day diffrence.
