Losi 1/10 TEN-SCTE ARR 4x4 Short Course Truck Thread
I am always seeing you guys talk the BCE chassis up. Without having to go back and read a few hundred pages can someone tell me the benefits to this chassis over stock? Also, is there any other brace or anything I need to get with it? Thanks for the info.

I have the TLR lightened chassis coupled with the TLR torque brace on the rear of my truck. I have broke the upper rod end (that attaches to the rear diff housing) three or four times now, seems like the ends are screwed very tight onto the shaft to get it to fit, perhaps causing the problem?? Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas for a solution?
On this truck, I have the Bump chassis, and have only tried the bump chassis. It has the option for different chassis braces (stock, Bump chassis brace, RC8 brace, etc.) It also comes with the shorter diff screws required for mounting the center diff without the center plastic piece. It is a nice improvement over the stock in that it just plain handles better and is more responsive.
I've heard similar things about the bce chassis, SNR chassis, and TLR chassis. I have tried chassis from all these brands on my other cars, and I've always like the upgrade.

I just hooked up my MMP & 4600 last week.
It works fine, there's a slight chance you might have to change the motor direction in the ESC. I had to with mine and now it works great. Wired A-A, B-B & C-C
Hook it up and go thru programming the radio/esc and see what direction it's running.

Yes it works and if spins backward just switch outer two wires with the mmp dont forget to run glitch buster or bce to get rid of glitch from servo or receiver pack think i am going to try that witj 800 mah lipo
What it comes down to for this truck is any of the lightened upgrade chassis out there work well and are better than the heavy stock chassis. Also, the aftermarket chassis gets rid of the center plastic piece that the center diff is mounted to which makes the CG a little lower and also the driveline angles a little less severe.

Has anybody compared the Bump to the BCE? If so what kind of differences?

If you are running non-sensored you can do this, but if you are running sensored you have to go into the software and set it to spin the other way.

Yes it does.
Just use the stock plastic braces. The chassis is stiff enough without upgrading the braces.
I think 99% of the guys that have used the BCE chassis haven't had any reason to look at another.

I run the bump Chassis..for me it works..as far as quality goes the BEC (just an opinion) is the best of all the chassis that I've seen, tighter mill work, the best materials, they do cost a bit more but quailty does cost..the Bump chassis is a close second in quailty, I do wish that the BEC had a bit more battery adjustability, the Bump chassis puts the battery a 1/2 inch back from stock and it does help the truck jump better.

am i correct in saying that the BUMP chassis also moves the battery tray back some?
