I like this guy!
This is my first AE in 22 years! RC10 is what got me racin tho.
Losi Jrx2 came out and never looked back, have or had almost all of the offroad race kits ever since.
Don't know about gettin a Strike, might just wait til they trick out the XXXT CR Short Course truck.

i started with the same truck or JRT?? it was a while ago. Bought it used and then my first new kit truck was the LXT when that came out. Then xx and xxt and then the CR conversion for both, a GTX and then the XX4 and then stopped racing. lol
This new AE is almost like starting over again. in a sense. But i did make it a requirement that i at least still run the losi threaded shocks.
But if losi made a Short Course XXXT conversion.....o man...you better believe you will see my SC10 in the classifieds section.
Just got back after a night of practice and the SC10 is DIALED! Starting to have a little more respect for these damn associateds now. lol
is there a way to get rid of the slop thats in the front wheels?

Please explain to me why you think this is necessary? Stock toe is 0.
No, stock rear toe is 3 degrees just like the T4 and B4. Again, 3 degrees total...1.5 per side and this comes entirely from the front hinge pin mount that sits between the chassis and the battery foam.
4 or 5 per side is def overkill, but I have yet to hear of anyone running that much. Different toes get thrown around in here and most of the time people don't mention if its per side or total.

WOW
This entire conversation I thought we were talking about camber.

Then yes, -1 to -2 degrees of camber is what most people run. I have used almost -3 degrees on a DESTROYED track to help prevent the rear from catching edges and spinning/rolling.

No leakin and threaded adjustability, just happened to have em hangin around.
I've been sayin all along, the more Losi stuff that gets on my truck the better it gets.
Losi shocks, 1 degree rear hubs, rear bearings and oh yeh, Losi stickers

Though I am sure some where there is an "offical" shim, I bought a tiny hardware kit that included small washers, that are the same size as the ones that would work when shimming or taking the slack out of areas such as where the hinge pins are.
On my other trucks I have shimmed, with the wahsers, front arms, spindles, and almost anywhere there was excessive play between two parts that were hinge pinned together, and then became loose over time.
If you do decide to tighten up the front end, just becareful because its easy to shim it to tight.
