Hi all.
I lost a screw of my ackerman plate, and i found out that to replace that screw i had to buy a full ackerman plate set! That's really expensive for an uneeded piece that won't brake no matter what you do to the truck.
Has anyone found a replacement screw on any Losi Vehicle that's sold seperately?
I know they do such tricks like their flywheel collet which appears on their part list to be set with the flywheel but i found that it is the same with XXX-NT collet which is sold seperately and costs only a few bucks.

Yeah unfortunately you can not buy them separate. I lost one and realized I had some grime & buildup causing drag on the other screws shoulder so I use a green scraper to clean it off really good once and a while during a diff rebuild and have never lost another.

I was worse! I lost it during the main, replaced the screw with whatever i saw in my pitbox and retapered the steering post with a larger screw... Now the steering post is useless and i need to buy a full set of ackerman plates... 
By the way i found these
They are from the LST (LOSA6244), but button heads, and not flatheads. I wonder if they fit?

Hello Losi fans, i have a setup question. I have a losi 8ight T 1.0 Race roller, and shes still competitive! set a 39.1 second lap on my home track, fastest of the day was 39.0 
My truck's rear end kicks out ALOT when i get off the brakes on our straitaway into a 90 degree right hander, how do i keep the rear from stepping out?
I was thinking heavier front shock oil to prevent weight transfer.
I run purple rear springs, black in the front.. had silvers in the rear before.
Running aka city blocks on 1/2 offset rims, track is clay, plenty of grip- truck will wheelie
- how would i remove the rear end kicking out
- Is there a list of losi spring tensions, so i know what springs to get if i ever want to swap them?
- What would a shorter or longer camber link do on my truck?
