Actually, I do have one new NIB xxx-4 left in the shop for purchase, clearing out the very last one, lol. It's all right to PM me if interested to have it shipped out. Thanks.

Is there stronger diff internals for this buggy?
A mate of mine has had issues stripping out the rear diff in his a couple of times and im sure he would like some stronger internals
Is it a case of correctly shimming these diffs to stop this happening?
I know he has a 5500kv and a 9000kv motor but not sure what he is using atm, guessing it may be the 9000 though

When you say stripping out the rear diff, what exactly do you mean? Are the teeth stripping, or is it the diff rings and balls, flattening out?

Anyone know of a new/different body that can be run on the XXX-4, without it being the Invader or Aurora body?

After a long heiatus from racing i have deceided to get back into racing, i know that 4wd is not popular around here in SW Ohio but that was my favorite class, so i picked up a xxx4 roller from a friend and started to modify it with the steering mod and updated to the losi 22 suspension i think it turned out well i still have a few more parts needed to get it race ready, here are some pic's of the mods i have done.

First of all, nice work! What are you running for front shafts? I have put the 22 next to the XXX4 arms before to check and the 22 arms are a hair longer. I gave up the idea of this mod there. Could you post like a shopping list for the conversion? That would be sweet!

Those mods look awesome RMS1776!! I almost would've suggested using the XXX-T rear CVD's, with the 22 arms.. Looks super good man. Pleaaaase please post up after you give it a run through the wringer!!

The front drive shafts are the stock shafts, i used the rear inner suspension mounts and the rear outer suspension mount to move the arms in you need to cut down the inner suspension mount about half and you have to drill a hole through the outer suspension mount you also need to cut a hole in the chassis to accept the mounts.

Could you possibly snap a detail pic of the rear, how you did that?

Here are the pic's of the rear, nothing special there just the 22 arm and some spacers.

When I did mine I went a bit overboard. Yours looks good.
