Default losi 1.0 an 2.0 compatability

i know the rear driveshafts and longer in the 2.0 than the pro or rtr because the chassis is a little longer but what about the other stuff?

1. can you use the cvds from the front and rear on the 1.0 in the 2.0 and vise versa? i know their more heavy duty on the 2.0, but do the 1.0's fit?

2. the front and rear center drive shafts in the 1.0 are barely long enough to fit. could i use the 2.0 reas drive shafts on the 1.0?

i guess what i'm asking is what's not compatable from the 1.0 to the 2.0


any help is greatly appreciated.

Huh??? To do what? If you mean to upgrade to a 2.0 chassis, the only "nessicary" Items are chassis and rear center shaft. There are lots of other differences between the two though.

i just meant what parts do the 2.0 use that the 1.0 cannot.

so it's the center rear drive shaft and the 2.0 chassis? everything else is compatable so i can upgrade everything else later or even switch between parts?

Basically,

Yes and yes. To go from a 1.0 to a 2.0, its rear drive line and chassis, though the 2.0 radio tray is reccomended. All other parts from the 1.0 will work.
2.0 body will fit a 1.0 with no real issues, the rear body mount hole has to be trimmed a couple mm's towards the front of the body to allow some flex.
1.0 body will fit the 2.0, the rear body mount hole has to be trimmed towards the rear of the body to allow flex. That could make the rear of the body weaker than normal.
2.0 rear hub hinge pins will work on the 1.0 hubs if they are drilled out to 3.5mm. Many guys I know use the M2C hub hinge pins which require drilling.
2.0 rear bearing inserts for the rear gear box will not fit a 1.0 gear box.
Arms are the same front and rear, though the 2.0 arms are a little stiffer.
Probably alot more that I am forgetting, but I am sure guys will point those out.

So from what im reading here... If i put the 2.0 radio tray on my 1.0 that would fix the servo problem?

Yup. But you need a 2.0 linkage too, or atleast some longer linkage rods for throttle and brake.

Everything is compatible, but if you go to the 2.0 chassis you need the 2.0 shaft. You can't use the 2.0 shaft on a 1.0 chassis.

I just put the 2.0 radio tray in my 1.0. I had to add a 2mm spacer under the servo and extend the brake and thorttle links but works good.

well have to remove the 2.0 radio tray after all the work of putting it in. Because i had to shim the servo up 2mm to cear the frame the brake and throttle linkage is hitting the body real bad. So back to the 1.0 radio tray
