chukb · #**2357** 01-06-2007, 11:48 AM

just the HPI body is cool, but HPI stickers on a LOSI?

btw- I blacked out the "HPI" on those windshield and grill stickers with a sharpie once and it worked great.

i think its alright in this case to HPi of the body, but only once... because the body does come from HPI so your advertising that particular product and then theres the Team Losi sticker for the kit..

Like ive seen a car with a Jconcepts sticker on it for the body and then pro-line for the tires.

Jack858 · #**2360** 01-06-2007, 04:14 PM

The way I see it, it's fair to put a certain company's sticker on there if you've got something from that company on the vehicle. HPI for the body, Losi for the truck

Aside of that, I'm not out to advertise. That's not my job

Pretty good, actually. The hard yellow springs really help a bunch. The tires get a lot of traction, and overall the tires are pretty good. The spoiler actually makes a considerable difference too - at WOT the truck used to get all squirrelly when the front tires ballooned and the contact patch was reduced to something about the size of your thumb

The spoiler helps to keep it more tame.

I'm gonna replace the pipe though, probably to one of Losi's HT tuned pipes (I'm thinkin the silver polished one) - with this pipe it doesn't perform quite how I would have hoped.

I clocked 49 km/h for the truck - courtesy of my VSM

respectable, but not good enough

rctrx · #**2363** 01-08-2007, 05:38 PM

nice, but i thought the aftershock went faster than that wow! nice crt chetto teacher, it looks sick

Quinton · #**2364** 01-08-2007, 07:49 PM

Cold weather + Bored =

savagepicco26 · #**2365** 01-09-2007, 12:21 AM

nice lineup, but they're too clean

overdosed · #**2366** 01-09-2007, 12:48 AM

i cant see the engine head on the tnx!

RespirologyRC · #**2367** 01-09-2007, 02:15 AM

Here are a couple of pics. The first one is of my 3 favorite trucks right to left (Supermaxx, St-R, and LST2)
I custom painted all the bodies myself, and race them all. Well actually i only race the Supermaxx and ST-R. The second pic is my Supermaxx with it's beater body. Yup I actually have a beater body for practicing and a nice show quality body for racing. As do all my trucks.

Quinton · #**2368** 01-09-2007, 08:37 AM

That's about as dirty as they get 80% of the time, and I haven't been running them much lately.

The engine head is there, you just can't quite see it. It's a lengthened Savage, running a TNX body. Most normal Savage bodies look goofy on it now.

If you want i can share some red clay with you

you know they make this stuff called soap and water "Wash Me" you think you'd keep these as clean as your Boxster..

suckfish · #**2371** 01-09-2007, 12:51 PM

if you dont have enough red clay to share just let me know I've got a ton

RespirologyRC · #**2372** 01-09-2007, 02:03 PM

Hahahah The LST2 is superclean! I took it completely apart, rebuilt the diffs, used a tooth brush to scrub every little grain of dirt off. I replaced all four 15x24 hub bearings. I found 2 that had sealed up and unsalvagable.

Hey suckfish i'm making a clay pot for some flowers, can i borrow some from your diff case on your lst2? LOL

Neon_Dave · #**2373** 01-09-2007, 03:03 PM

I already blew two bearings out. My clutch was acting up and I was wondering why - and upon inspection and about 40 peices and what's looks like a bearing falls out... I guess I found my problem

I replaced 'em with some nice teflon sealed high-qual bearings, and it now works sooo much better

RespirologyRC · #**2374** 01-09-2007, 09:21 PM

Neon Dave try the ceramic clutch bearings; you will be suprised by how well they spin.

when i race, i change the clutch bearings before every main on the weekends. when i'm not racing, i change the clutch bearings about every 10 tankfulls or so. they're super cheap. easy to change. so why wait till they fail and possibly damage your engine or other drivetrain components? (not knocking you neon, making a general statement) bearings are probably one of the most overlooked maintenance item on monster trucks. the axle carrier bearing get changed at least every half gallon, or more often if they seem to be binding or sound like they've got grit in them. transmission bearings get changed every gallon. this may seem like overkill to some, but for me, it's peace of mind.
