Losi LXT Duratrax Gas Conversion

Post by limestang »

Does anyone know the source of the right outdrive for the transmission below? I'm attempting to rebuild a Losi LXT/Duratrax Gas Conversion truck. As can be seen in the photo, the outdrive is deformed, and will not hold the drive shaft in place. The the outdrive looks like it's made by Losi, but it's a wider diameter then the LXT, and it houses ball bearings.

Thanks, Limestang

Those look like LRM (JRX2) out-drives.

Thanks for the help, you put me on the right track. The Losi LXT I was using was based on an Lxt conversion. This uses an older transmission design and the out drives don't work on the Duratrax. I found true LXT outdrives and they fit.

Now I have to work the next problem - No motor mount or clutch assembly. A unique feature on this particular Duratrax Gas conversion is it uses the Losi 48 pitch spur gear and slipper clutch assembly. I have not been able to find any information on this configurations so am stuck until I find instructions and parts
