The first edition kits when the car debut had teflon shielded bearings but now Losi has switched to the metal shielded.

Anyone heard further about the ceramic bearings they are testing in the field? I thought I read about it somewhere, maybe on the TTT site.

The only difference in the shock tower is the added camber mounting positions. The shock mount holes are in the same place. They are not sure if it is coming out or not yet.

Maybe with that new piece the rear toe in will be even now.

The rear toe problem on the XXX-S is in the hub carriers, not the hingepin mounts. The easy fix is to run a 0 degree carrier on the left, and a 1/2 degree on the right.

Are you 100% positive is all the rear uprights? The hingepin angles don't look the same to me.

Already did the change in the degree on the upright. Did anybody let Losi know?

Here's a look at some red cvds that I picked up off of e-bay that are made for the losi. Hopefully this file will attach

Here's also a look at the carbon fiber brace offered by Ratzas. They also offer shock towers that have twice as many camber locatins (upper and lower holes). You can check their stuff at www.ratzas.net

Man that looks heavy duty, will the sway bar mounts still fit onto the bulkhead without any modifications? Nice pics.
