8T 2.0
03-17-2011 | 09:21 PM
M2C RACING is pleased to announce the release of our new conical hole shock
pistons. Made with delrin and held to .004 less than the shock body to give a very smooth action.
Piston holes are drilled to 1.2 dia.
After much testing by Barry pettit and Josh holifield we have come up with a piston that gives about the same pack on the compression stroke
(UP) as stock and super quick decompression stroke(down) that helps the vehicle settle much quicker after a jump or rough track. This means you can get on
the throttle quicker. Barry proved this at the Physco nitro this past weekend.
Note: you may have to change shock fluids to fit your driving style.
part no. 5980

Go back to the original Drake set up, you will be better off. There has been way to many changes from stock set up, all the pro's spend a lot of time with these RC cars, and.come up with the set up that is all around best for these cars. Make one change at a time, then understand the change you have made, then go from that point if its not reacted on the change your looking for. Everyone has different style of driving, find set up that will suit your style, then enjoy what your doing.

8ight-t 2.0
I have one question, i searched and i ended it up with even more questions. I took my rear diff out for a rebuilt which it was almost bone dry on fluid. upon tear down there was 3 shims on the left side (looking at the rear) and one on the right side. ok fine, i didnt bother me, but went i went to put it together it felt nothcy. Losi says
so thats a total of 6 shims? i ordered the new shims but for the mean time i ended it up with the only 4 shims i have on the left side (looking at the rear) now it feel a bit notchy with a slight tight spot once i spin it a full rotation.
which way is it? am i doing it wrong or is it ok?
The 8T 2.0 comes with (2) .25mm shims
and (1) .10mm shims on the left bearing
insert. On the right bearing insert there are
(3) .10mm shims. We advise that you start
with this gear mesh with your new vehicle.

They should work well on the Losi also.
