Newbie here to 1/8 Buggy's. I recently picked up a used Losi 8ight RTR ( first version) and was wondering what's some good upgrades to start out with? Also what parts from newer version (3.0,4.0,X) be swapped over to the RTR? Thanks for the help/info!!

Most 3.0 and 4.0 parts will fit but nothing from the x

I looked for this topic tonight after the FedEx guy delivered to me a Losi 8ight RTR but doesn't say 2.0 or anything. It was on sale at one of my fav hobby shops for less than $500 and the upper suspension arms are fixed plastic or composite type. I wanted to get back into the 1/8 buggy again since NovaRossi RX5s were popular but I waited and started out w/ brushless. Fun stuff!

I can see that this particular model is a clearance item but I will enjoy hopping it up and rippin it up! I like adjustable turnbuckles for all the upper suspension links, etc.

Thanks for this - bookmarked!

I have every hop up ever made for that buggy that will never be used, message me if u need anything. It is basically an rtr 2.0 from back in the day. Not the current Losi 8x 2.0 but the original line that used standard size screws like 3/32, the new car uses metric m3/m4 screws and is a completely different buggy however that buggy u have had so many option parts it’s unfathomable where to start. I miss those days. Like I said I have boxes of parts for it brand new that I will never use if u need anything message me cause I would love to send it to someone who will use it. I’m in Cali.
