Steering Knuckle spacer
Hello, can anybody tell me how thick of a spacer should be glued to the steering knuckle to stop the wheel chatter at full lock? Thx

Anyone see Losi updating the XXX-S?
Since they are still keeping it in production. It has just a few things that could be made better. Upgrade to the new shocks and maybe some of those Lvds. That would be nice. One in my area wins all week on a tight carpet track.

Charles- Use the Losi #4 washer. Part # 6215, .030 thick.
RCknight- Not sure on the shocks, but I would guess you should be able to adapt them. I find my car works best running the standard shocks on carpet. I think there will be LVD's for the car. Losi plans on making them for other makes in the future, so I am pretty sure they will be available for the XXXS.
Losi-sw-You may be able to come up with something if you have the MIP cvd's for the car. You should be able to find a axle that would except the hex. I thought we had something figured out, but that was a long time ago.

Does anyone have a Carpet Oval setup for the xxx-s?
Got a fun race coming up with Kasey Kane of Nascar fame next week and would like to have the car at least close to set up for a small runline flat oval.

I am new to RC and was thinking about getting a xxx-s rtr2 just to start with. Would this car be good to learn with and would it be competitive?

I think it would be a perfect first car. The radio is what sells it for me.

I've been reading this setup guide from Todd Hodge how to setup the XXX-S. And i was reading and i noticed something about the XXX-S that i never knew you could do.
On the 1/2 degree hubs for the rear for toe-in. It really gives you like 2 degrees of toe-in. Usually for mod you want that much. But for stock you should really only need 1 degree or so. So what it says is to flop the hubs backwards. So instead of having that camber link position facing outward of the wheel it will be facing into the wheel.
I just thought it was interesting and thought i should post it to those who might want to know.

Well tl xxxs racer, you might want to reread that. You use the left hub on the right and the left hub on the right. By swapping them side to side you remove toe instead of adding toe.

If you place a 1/2 or 1 degree hub on the other side of the car from how it is marked ("R" or "L"), you get that much taken out of the standard 2 degrees of toe-in (per side) that is built-in to the hubs on the XXX-S. I use the 1/2 degree hub on the other side to get 1-1/2 degrees of toe-in for both my stock cars as was wisely recommended to me by Matt Francis some time ago.
Otherwise, if you place them on the same side of the car as they are marked ("R" or "L"), you will gain that much over the 2 degrees of standard toe-in (being 2-1/2 or 3 degrees).
