For you Electric Losi Drivers-Sleeves & Screw Kits...
Hey guys! Just wanted to let everyone know that I have plenty of these available as of right now.
The 6061 Aluminum Sleeves are for the Losi Molded Outdrives #A-3097. Trinity use to make some a while back, but I think they are pretty hard to come by. These also have a hole on the sides to help keep them on with a glue spot. Myself and a few others have been running them on our XXX-4's for a while now, and I think there are even one or two that have put them on their 2WD buggies. I know they have saved me from breaking a lot of outdrives! If you're still running the steel outdrives, that's cool, but the molded ones with my aluminum sleeves weigh about half as much. I sell these for $18.00/pair + shipping.
The Screw Kits are for replacing the Losi Kingpins #A-6235 that captures the plastic spindle carriers in the front arms of the XX-4 & XXX-4, they may also work on the XXX-S if you’re into on-road. I know everyone has done it, you barely graze the pipe or wall with your 4WD and the spindle carrier gets ripped from the arm. In two weekends I probably done that 5 times total in practice and qualifying. It’s even cost me a main before. I have not had that happen to me since I have installed the screw kit in the front end of my buggy, not once. I sell these for $4.00/set + shipping.
Both packages include instruction on how to install the parts properly, so no need to worry about messing up. You can PM me on here, or send me an email at: [email protected]. Thanks for checking out what I have to offer. Hope to here from you!

I have used these sleeves for almost a year now and have had no breaks or issues with them at all- As an experienced 4wd racer with numerous wins and podium finishes, I can say these things work great. They weigh virtually nothing and I have not noticed any decreases in performance. By using these, it is one less thing to worry about breaking while using the plastic outdrives on the 4wd.

Thanks Chris! Now that the XXX-CR and the XXX-TCR use the "oldschool" Losi Tranny & Molded Outdrives #A-3097, these aluminum sleeves are what you need. They should give you an extra edge by cutting extra rotational mass that the motor has to spool up, especially when running stock classes!
