xx and xxx?

[Kayne]

Are there any interchangeable parts between the xx and the xxx?

[bearrickster]

Thanks for the info Bearrickster. I was just wondering because I see a lot of stuff advertised as xx,xxx parts.

yea I see that also, but very few parts interchange what do you need? that would help.

I'll post a wanted thread in a bit.I don't need much just a few bits.But I do plan on running it so a few extra parts on hand would be nice.

From what I remember the XXCR - 1st gen XXX share rear wishbones, hubs, & centre anti-squat plate Also driveshafts, shock absorbers, gearbox internals inc' diff & slipper assembly. Wheels are interchangeable... but the XXX had the 'body-pin' wing mount. I'm not sure about the later XXX versions (BK1/BK2 & CR) as I have no experience of these.

Geometry-wise if you line an early XXX with a Double X CR they are pretty much identical - just the location of the front shocks on the later car seems to make it more prone to understeer (IMO )

The whole rear end fits on xx.

Kinwald was testing the new Triple X rear end on the XX chassis.

My mate and i did it too.

Can't remember what we did but was simple enough.

What about duratrax parts? The arms and some stuff look the same. I know the quality sux. Has anybody tried to make them work?

[bearrickster]

their isnt any shortage of losi xx parts around. their all over Ebay.

Has anyone replaced the bushings in the transmission with bearings?Is this possible?I'm not a big fan of bushings,I don't even know why they offer them as an option.Pay 10-20 bux more for the bearing model.HMMM? Bearings please.

[bearrickster]

yes boca has kits. I got one off ebay a while ago

[Kayne]

Awesome. Thanks Bearrickster

[JK Racing]

if you know the bearing sizes (standard Losi sizes I am sure), use avidbearings.com $1 each, I get all my bearings from there.

[Kayne]

Boca has a whole kit for about 17bux. I don't think that is too bad of a price.
