As mike said you NEED to run the Losi collet along with the Losi clutch, The Larger collet will Not work properly no matter how many shims you add.

Do you mean the front center cvd? Or these LOSA3586?

If you mean LOSA3586, then the updated ones on my new truck are 150.75mm

The ones on my older truck are 149mm.
