Re: Vonats Losi truck buildup
Try the jrx-pro shock tower off the buggy you posted. it is a little shorter and wider so I think it will be a better fit for that body.markt311 wrote:Here is my 14 year old kid dream truck, she's a fix'er upper. Please comment with your suggestions, I have a new T2 body for it... I might need to cut a custom rear shock tower for it to fit.

Cool undertray! Mark I have some universals for that truck if you need em'
maybe some more rims too, if it's you vonats racer

Re: Vonats Losi truck buildup updated 3-28-10
Thanks, I got the undertray 2 years ago while helping a guy clean out his shed. He told me he had some tool boxes and stuff I could go through and keep if I helped him clean the shed. He dug that undertray out and asked me if I knew what car it was for, he couldn't believe I knew what an LXT was! lol
Reggie, I might take you up on those wheels and universals
I bet I threw them in that box of stuff I sent you last year
I didn't think I was going to build any Losi cars, but I changed my mind at some point.

That the stock (old) LXT original body? I am sure there aren't re-pops yet. But I could be wrong.
Looks great - I wish I lived near you all and could run these older r/c's together. Makes em sad to not be able to.

Does anyone know a good painter? I don't want to screw up this body painting it myself, I'll probably never see a new one again.
I was thinking of going with a Kinwald paint scheme and colors, but flames instead of drips.
And thanks again Rick

I think it's cool--I like how stuff tends to "stay in the family" Mark sent me some LXT bones and rims about a year ago that will be heading back in his direction now that he can use em 

Re: Vonats Losi truck buildup updated 3-28-10
I'm taking all my Losi stuff to the track next weekend, Adam Drake is going to be in town for a race. So I'm going to bring my Junior 2 and beg him to take it around the track for a pack
I too like the vibe of this site, I've sent people stuff for free, people have sent me stuff for free, as long as you keep the good karma going it makes up for the few douches we've had come and go in the last few months.
Reggie, let me know what I owe you for shipping when you get that stuff together, no hurry though. I'm going to take my time building the truck... hey I have until September to make sure it's ready to go!!
