at nitro challenge my front left shaft broke at the same spot as u, but my truggy also weighed like 20 lbs

I had one of my wheel cvd's break like that. I was doing a pre race teardown and noticed a split in the axle. Good thing I caught it before it broke completely. First time in my 6 years running Losi I ever saw that.

They are for both front and rear. Also make sure you follow the instructions included with them and set the gap between the pads correctly for the new discs(they are thicker than the old ones).;)

Hi people this is my first post.

I have a Losi 8T2.0 and i race in a local track in Athens, Greece. I got a little problem with shock stand-offs as i have broken two of them. So is there any tip to protect them from breaking?

I have another issu with my front left right rims. I have broken an AKA one and a Losi one. Is it random or is there something i should pay attention to?

I've been hearing more of this shock stand-off issue lately. I'm thinking there might have been a bad batch?? Might be worth a shot giving the new titanium ones a try. I personally haven't broken any stand-offs.

As for the rims, that is a known issue with this truck and can be completely resolved with a couple things. One is to run the losi +2mm hex hubs in the front of the truck. The other is to use a dremmel and sanding drum to remove a bit of plastic on the front of the left-front arm. Turn the wheels all the way to the right and find where the rim rubs the front of the arm. That is the spot where you want to remove some material. Just take a little off at a time until the rim doesn't rub. Those two things should solve all wheel problems. I've yet to break a wheel since doing the above and the arms don't seem any weaker even with a bit of grinding.;)

thank, i was just going to leave the old larger disc in the front.

are we talking a crack along the 3mm pin end ? or a complete failure as in bone in 2 pieces. ?

In my 2.0 buggy at a gallon i noticed a crack(hairpin crack in dogbone around pin). Then with my 2.0 truggy right after i pulled outta the box it had a crack. Both front cvds..buggy front right, truggy front left. Losi replaced all no prob

Thanks everyone for helping me spend my money. I placed my order today from a local shop that sponsors one of the tracks I race at. As soon as I get it I will be stripping the nitro goodies out of it and putting the electric conversion kit into it that is currently in my 1.0. I am really looking forward to racing it this weekend.

um you sure you want to go electric?

Yep, I am very happy running electric in both my 8ight-e 2.0 and currently in my 8ight-t-e 1.0. I know a lot of people don't care for electric but it works great for me.

i used to race nothing but electric offroad, i just got boring after a while for me lol. nitro always gives me a thrill on the track

thats cool though if you want to race electric, i do race a slash though and a rc18t in the winter time.

Trust me, 1/8 scale electric offroad has nothing boring about it. Can you say stupid power.:D

It'll never replace nitro for me, but electric 1/8 scale has it's own thrills!:nod:

i just dont care for the quiteness of them , i do have a couple of racing buds who run 1/8 electric and i seen, them run them it just doesnt do it for me.

i know how much power they have, though but sometimes that can get you in more trouble;)

It sure can get you into trouble! But that's the fun of it. I love driving my 8ight-E 2.0, but you're right it's not the same as nitro. There's no noise, no fuel stops, no pit strategy, etc... Still fun in it's own way though. I haven't ever driven a E truggy. That must be fun too as a truggy may even be able to use all the power brushless motors have to offer. Maybe... Well Probably not.LOL:D
