Hi

Hi am using a HiTech 5997TG, for steering.

I want to order an alu servo arm, for my eight, from Amain.
Is it the JR arm, that fits the HiTech servo?

It WILL work for the 8B...BUT that would cater to bashers or cheaters....though I think you would be caught off the line OR if you want to go back to the begging of the truggy days, add that to your buggy, put a truck body on, and MTR tires, and call it a truggy!

Whats wrong with the aluminum one that came with your 5997 servo ? I have been using them for years ? If the hole is too small just drill and tap acordingly.

Exclamation What parts to change on the RTR kit

Need help.

I just bought a NIB Losi 8 buggy RTR kit and was wondering what parts I would need to make it race ready specs.

The electronics have been dealt with already. Just need to know which parts on the RTR kit I need to upgrade and adjust in the event I decide to race it at my LHS's dirt track.

The engine and pipe will be used for the time being.

What must have option parts would I need?

Thanks to anyone who could help.
