LXT runner build

This is kind of my introductory post, I've been lurking for a while, but finally made an account. I have been restoring old stadium trucks for a few years now, and this is what's currently on the bench. Hope you guys enjoy! I love seeing build threads. I recently found a Pro SE in my shop that I bou...

Re: Looking for top shaft diemnsions

My bad. Forgot it was flat on both sides and not D shaped. It was the 3,2 measurement i was loking for. 1/8" i guess... :wink: I have most parts for a XX slipper as spares in my old box of rc stuff. Would like to fit it to a LRM transmission but is missing the top shaft. Thinking of having one...

Re: LXT runner build

Found some old Factory Works rear RC10T wheels, and some old Pro-LIne 2574 JRXT/RC10T front wheels, along with some Pro-Line Gladiators I had from the past & new "Edge" front tires. Digging the white wheels a bit more, wish I could find some Pro-Line 2576 wheels to match the fronts, bu...

Re: XXT Basher

Ground out the chassis for a shorty lipo, added a Reedy brushless setup, drove around a little to set-up, handles great! This forum has definitely worn off on me. I never would have considered mounting all the electronics in the center of the chassis, but it seems to fly very flat! Just need to pain...

JRXT build, kinda

The old "I'll make this pile of parts into a truck for next to nothing" scheme original_5174d6fd-acac-4c86-9163-d6bdfaeb3b8b_20210905_103939.jpg But it never goes that way, found some old RPM JRXT conversion arms and well, then it starts (dremel used to make e-clip grooves) 20210930_185215...

Re: Rebuilding my JRX Pro-SE

If you don't get the holes for the servo just right (as the previous owner of my LXT chassis did), you can use UV plastic weld to patch, then re-drill/countersink. It doesn't look perfect, but it works pretty well! I used Bondic brand. Here is the build thread. As far as oil viscosities go, I'm pret...

Re: LXT runner build

Finally some wheels that feel right! Pro-Line 2572 front & ???? rear (If anyone knows the Losi truck rear part # please let me know! I know the RC10T rear is 2573, but can't find anything on the Losi rears), along with a set of new vintage Losi tires. Added some Vintage RC carbon fiber shock tow...

Re: My JRX2 restore/race build

Looks like it's coming along nicely. Awesome that you found those old MIP rebuild kits! I have sourced a few of those myself. Look forward to seeing progress.

Re: Losi XX WOIN Racer build

I'm planning this to be my last XX build. It will be a very clean racer with modern electronics. No blue bits. All silver and black. "Racer" huh? Are we to believe you will drive this one? :lol: Even if you don't, you won't catch hell from me, I build trucks with the intention to drive th...
