Hello, I wanted to share some pictures of my Dad's XXT. He hasn't run it much since he bought an MF2. I decided to put a few upgrade parts on it so my brother could come practice with me while I am at the track. So far I have put threaded shock...
Last post
I have a couple of XXTs, one is the CR +graph. Haven't had a chance to run them yet as I want to re-build them first. Cant wait cause they look great fun. Don't suppose you have the manual for the XXT?
Just wondering if any one can tell me the difference between the normal XX-4 and the worlds edition? Are there other versions as well?
Last post
You can still piece a xx-4 worlds car together with all the parts that are still available. There are some nice mods available as well with the X-5 still hanging around! The problem with the Trinity aluminum parts is the cost factor.That and if and...
i just won a 1/10 losi.. think its a junior... whats up with the trans?? is it a retro fit??whats up with the slipper??i think it has rc10 shocks??is the top plate upside down??..point out anything you see..i had a lxt years ago but i dont know much...
Last post
yeah, i'd say traxxas shocks too, they are a light gold, most associated from what i've seen are more orange. I'm not familiar enough with the early rc10's....I could never afford them, hah.
This will be my first Jrx2 build , just picked this up locally over the weekend along with a small box of parts. Looks like all the parts are still there to reassemble the 5 link. Performance and durability wise which is the better set up to use and...

Our local hobby shop charges a premium for vintage parts. You can hardly get buggy rims there any more, much less 2.0. :x
Got these from a friend today :D . Worked out a trade to paint up some bodies for his sc10 and new losi 1/8 truggy. he said he got them years ago to build a sprint car but never did. Who out there knows who made these :?: :?:

Nope Black there NIB parts just slid them out for picture. Iv got a x-2 to rebuild one day i think il put them on it. I talk to Kelly Lunsford couple times a year catch up on stuff he thought it was cool i found a set. I planted the seed told him it...
Has any one herd of a Class 8 Conversion for the XX-4? Is it some kind of conversion that makes it a truck? Came across a XX-4 with this conversion and it looks pretty cool.

From my understanding (when I was an Academy team driver, really pressuring them for graphite parts) the difference between stiffezel (or similar plastic race parts) and graphite was the amount of actual carbon fibers present in the mix. I havent...
I had a cool time,today.
I finished up my MaCallister truck body paint job for my JRXT and a really clean Losi Revolution motor turned up on my door. :D

Thank you,Rick!
Solid friends like you are hard to come by. :wink:
I'm really happy the XX CR is serving you well...I wish I had a not so new one to run...Running that car was great fun,for the time I had it.
The XXT I got from you is a keeper,for...
Just wondering what are Internal shock springs? I have never seen them for another car, this is the first time I see something like this. So they go inside the shocks? springs rather then stops? Any one use these? Here is a link:
Last post
Yep, you are right !
This is the invention of Jukka Steenari.
He used it in place of the current A or B spacers.
That's looks like a pensil spring.
So you put it on the shock shaft between the E clips under the piston and the cartridge.
I just came across a chassis labeled a low center of gravity chassis, is this true? Is it really a different chassis from the stock XX-4 chassis? If it is a different chassis has any one tried one?
Last post
This is the XX4 worlds edition standard fit chassis
I just put a set of RPM side bulkheads (the mount for the 5 link) and now the stock body doesn't fit. Before I cut the body to make it fit, has any one else had this problem?
Last post
The package for them didn't have a header, so it's probably the ones for the JRXT. Hmm, that's a pain, guess I am going ot have to find another set. The originals are nice to have, but always seemed a bit weak. Just found a set of originals on eBay,...
I bought this uhhh, car for a very, very low price. I figured it would be good for parts at least. Well after I got it I started thinking about what I could do with it other than piece it out. all the major components are there and the tranny is...

Ive just put a stickpack lipo in my xx4 after looking at pics of others and it seems to be very tight against the motor, even touching it. And it doesn't matter how much i mess with it I cant get enough clearance.
Any ideas that might help?...
Last post
I have come to discover, it also depends on your gearing. If your running tall gearing (like 26/82 or higher), the motor is moved back just enough to touch. I found this out by trying to gear a 13.5 brushless, I will be getting the AE 72 tooth spur...
I have a new McAllister truck body sitting on my JRXT and I am drawing a blank when it comes to paint :shock:

Does any one know if the rear hubs from a XXX will fit on a XX? The reason is the XXX rear wheels don't fit, the rim rubs on the top part of the hub. So rather then grid away at original parts I thought I would try and fit the XXX hubs and see if...

But the offsets are different, making a XXX too wide to be legal.

Well, actually it is mostly new. Just a couple of pieces need to be replaced to make this a real beauty. I can't take credit for it, I got it from Rick (bearrickster) last week. He is turning me into a Losi addict. :mrgreen: I love the efficient,...

yep, this looks alot like the traxxas slipper. parts are still available at tower, pegs, etc. I just bought a whole slipper assembly for a blue eagle.
So,I got my vintage Bud's wing mounted on my JRX2...It's a whopper of a wing-I need some feedback.
Is it too much wing for the car? Should I trim it down,maybe at the rear of the side panels?
Please let me know what ya think...Maybe not enough car?!

I use a couple sizes of sanding drums, then I take a really sharp exacto blade and trim off the flash. If it needs more work I might use a small fine file or some wet or dry sandpaper, grade depending on situation.

Hey guys, I am new to this forum, but certainly not new to RC, but I was wondering if any one knows if there is an internal difference, or just different with the spur and pinion?
Last post
The one difference I can think of that impacts to some degree whether specific parts will work is the 'pro differential'.
The original LRM did not have a pro differential. Meaning the center diff gear rode directly on the diff side in the middle....
I was out of rc for a long time, My prose was new when I left and the XXX was hot when I returned so I missed the XX completly. I just won this Blue motor plate on Ebay is it the Kinwald plate for the cr?

This is a chassis I bought off of Dirt oval.com. It initially had lxt rear arms, and a hacked front bulkhead with what I think are XX front arms. I cleaned it up and added some things.
