I assembled the shocks from this pile of new parts and used shocks. I'm using XXX threaded bodies with gold shafts. Internal limiters and springs. I may be changing the springs.

the 2-56 fit but strip easily as the internal diameter is a touch big. I ran the car and they stayed in place for most of the run till it flipped. They look nice on the shelf though.

Looking good man! What did you do about bearings with those rear hubs? isn't the 22-4 metric? ps: if you end up looking to sell any of that older stuff xx4 let me know, looking to use my xx-4 again and could use some stuff. would be nice to put some threaded shock on it. Thanks. I had to slightly t...

Time for the fun stuff. I am using a Skektrum S6245 servo. It comes with a ridiculously short 2" lead. I was wondering how best to route the wire to the other side of the tunnel when I realized I could go straight through it. I notched 2 small openings the size of the wire. The fit is tight eno...

Starting working on assembling the mini LXT. Going to need to rework the front and rear hubs as there isn't enough meat on them to be durable at the ball stud holes. But its coming out pretty good. I have an idea for the rear axles, hopfully the lhs has some of the parts i need. Also seems that the...

Some Trinity goodness. Because this chassis isnt cut to allow the motor to sit lower, I couldn't use the motor mount I preferred. I considered cutting the chassis, but am going to hold off for now. I was very happy to find a set of black tunnel plugs. These have gotten quite scarce. I'm starting wit...

I'm using an R1 Wurks super stock esc. In the interest of space and cleanliness, I changed out the stock capacitor for a smaller unit. I mounted it to the side of the esc body and covered it with a 1up Racing cf shelf. I'm utilizing Trinity XXX swaybar mounts to clamp this Trinity XX4 swaybar. I sti...

For those interested - The Mini Nationals sponsored by Losi at RC Madness will be on March 18-19, 2023. There will be a Mini JRX2 class.

I figured the only way to get a coffin chassis RC10 Graphite is to have a replica chassis made. Since I have an extra later model RC10 Graphite in nice condition, it seems like a good option for the making a coffin chassis style buggy. Disclaimer - No RC10 Graphite parts are being harmed or lost in ...

Electronics are in place. The end result looks pretty simple, but it took a lot of back and forth trying to get everything wired as clean as possible.

I'm currently waiting on a couple small pieces before I can finish the build.

I've gotta find that 5108 to fill in my collection. Does anyone know what 5109 or 5111 are? (assuming they weren't skipped) The 5110 complete set has a ball bearing center gear and the deeper recess side gear as well, didn't know it was available separately though. 5100 Diff gear set 5101 left gear ...

^ RogueIV - Thanks. Cool looking brace you made. I have some carbon fiber 22-4 braces that I'm going to modify and try to make them work.

These are the Exotek 22-4 braces that I cut up to make work on the XX4. I still need to add some stops, and a few other small changes, but they already hold the batteries very secure. I removed the battery decals and wrapped them with faux carbon for looks and some protection.

I cut out and installed this Bittydesign wing. I also modified the stock wing mounts to accept wing washers and screws instead of body clips.

I also finished the rear swaybar links. Just waiting on my servo steering link to arrive.

Not really sure, those Andy's arms could be for the RC10.
