i broke a shock cap the first time i drove it, losi sent me new ones right away like they always do. props to tom and all the guys at losi.
my solution is a zip tie tied around the cap and now the tie rubs instead of the cap.I have raced three weekends in a row and replaced a couple ties but no more caps.
I agree the shock caps and ends, rod ends and spur pinion mesh are potential problems but i am very confident losi is addressing them as we speak.

people on URC are goin nuts talking smack about breaking a few very inexpensive parts here and there. and if losi is gonna back the parts there no room to complain.
also nice lil pit tip on helping to protect the caps!

Well im not sure how many old timers are on here,,, but back when an older site was up and running ,, ppl there found parts that were weak links on the VENDETTA,,, this made it easier for others to stock up on weaker parts or bullet proof the more expensive items and transfer the stress to more ineensive and easy to replace items..... Just my .02 cents ...
That said ,, I see nothing wrong with others finding the more weaker parts...

Yeah I'm running a dynamite 7000kv motor its only 22mm but I'm told a 26mm would fit fine. my spur and pinion is doing great, I had a whole set of team associated steel pinions that are the same pitch and shaft diameter so I use an 11 tooth pinion with my motor. one thing I will say is that my spur gear came warped and I had to do some extensive break in to get the gears to mesh right.

Is there any optional bigger tire and wheels available from other buggies that will fit the Losi 8ight Mini?

I put a 2668 from Castle with a 15T pinion in mine and its soooooo freakin fast on 2s now and the stock ESC though it did get hot did not thermal .
The 2668 was a complete bolt on except for needing a pinion with a larger bore .
