I run one on both the Losi truggy and buggy and they are well worth it. BCE is a small company that only sells direct. It takes time to receive your order but its well worth the wait. Dont be in a hurry it may take awhile but well worth the wait. Heres a link to the Losi 2.0 BCE thread. The last post also has a recent youtube video of my 8ight's in action. Check it out.

Thats all you need. The only issue I had was getting the side mud guards to fit. I had to dremel them a little. Otherwise just transfer everything. The buggy chassis fits on the same spot on the starter box too.

how is the wear on the chassis when the droop screws hit is it bad
and how long does it take to get it when theres no problems,i heard also about the spur gear sticker out underneth the chassis and it said on their chat forum to use two washers do u just put the washers on top of the screws and then mount the whole center diff assembly i run the stock spur gear

You can e-mail BCE at "[email protected]".
He also has a thread over on the "truggyracers.com"
web site.

The chassis wear is amazing compared to a stock TFT chassis. As far as the droop screws hitting, the BCE chassis has the screws in the chassis just like the TFT Losi chassis.
Since the chassis is 3mm rather than the stock 4mm the kit has 4 washers included to install between your chassis and the center diff mounts to accomodate for the 1mm chassis difference.

As far as the time of delivery only BCE can speak for that. I do know that buying the chassis was without a shadow of a doubt the best mod ive done.

ok cool so im guessing the washers go under the center diff mount i think if i remember the stock spur gear is a 48t on the eight 1.0 so if u dont use the washers it will hang out to much

Is it really taking 6 months? Where is it coming from and does he just get a lot of orders or what. Im having trouble understanding why it takes so long.

Bill is a great guy. I am not sure why it takes so long to get products from him. I am not sure if he CNC's everything or does them himself. I just order a new chassis the day after I receive a new one from him, that way it usaully works out since I replace the chassis every 3 months.

All that being said....BCE chassis are one of the best Hop-Ups I put on my car. I never even run a OEM chassis anymore. Bill is what RC is all about and is a small company. You can't expect a Ferrari next day aired, it is worth the wait and I will always support him as long as he is making chassis's.
