I too, have been running the original adjustables on buggy and truggy sense they came out and I have yet to have ONE failure.


Frank my man, you must just drive the piss out of you stuff bro. Losi needs to send you some stuff just to do durability testing on it.

i like the losi adjustable braces, the inserts are weak but i just keep an eye on them, if they have any slop i take the brace off and replace them, a pack of inserts are only like 4 bucks and they take just a couple min to replace. the inserts did cost me a couple races when i first installed them but this was also with the old braces, since the new braces have came out ive had a insert break but was still able to finish the race since the insert was captured by the brace

The old braces only cost me one race and that was on the E-buggy going through a log section... IE a lot of weight and a hard impact. Since switching to the new plates with captured inserts I've yet to have one issue.

You will. It will take a lot but it's bound to happen.

There from Robert @ Matrix Concepts, Unfortunately they are alum and wont be as durable as the Stock units....I really wish losi would get with the program and do something similar like this.
