Last summer when i ordered mine it was minus the clutch bearings and airfilter??? horizon covered it but everyone i talked to nobody has ever had missing peices like i did. someone must have been drunk at the baggage stage. lol

I just recently bought two. both had no issues, but of course i went thru, loctited everything and rebuilt the diffs and shocks. but everything was in the roller, nothing i had to replace either

hey guys,
do yous recommend a metal shield or a rubber shield clutch bearings?

what type of setup changes are being done to the truck with the 12deg blocks/inclined spindles?

Im pretty sure theres a Drake setup sheet for em on the Losi site

it may be.. i just wanted some oppinions from racers who have tried them 1st hand.

I wasnt really a fan for Florida tracks...gave me more on power steering and lost a little offpower. Tracks are usally tight here so i went back to stock

hmmm, intresting you run stock diff fluid?

Yeah just ran the Drake setup for it..it was killer in sweepers and onto straightaways, but going in to and slow 180's it had a push where there was never one before

You can get that turn in back by simply taking a dremel to your inclined spindles and carriers to get extra steering throw.

If you do a straight swap to the inclined spindles from the plastics you will notice you have to back your EPA out quite a bit as you do not get as much throw. After some dremel work my truck turns in better than it ever did and gets the benefit of the mid to exit steering of the inclined spindles.

+1 A little bit of dremel work and you've got your turn-in back.

Although I'm not sure how the 12's will work on the truggy. But I've been running the 10's and love them!

mine have been dremeled to hell and all that sh*t...just never tested them.. im not going to know what to exspect till i throw the truck down on the track at rama...havent drove anything in about 5months

if anyone is looking for a new set of the 12D inclined carrier/spindle i have a set i did the mod to and never ran due to finding my issue i had for steering. pm for details

Hi all,

Just swopped to Losi from Mugen - read through a lot of this thread but got a couple of questions

Servo Saver - think I'm being thick but the unwind 5.5 turns comment ? Is this from totally tightened up with the spring compressed and then unwind 5.5 turns ? - I'm used to measuring this with digi calipers in the past ?

Shock Mod - using the foam compensators what is the Mod and is it worth doing ?

Thanks in advance

Neil

how many degrees(of incline) are the stock 8t 2.0 spindle carriers...??? aluminum replacements are 10 and 12 degree....thanks.
