Yeah cool. So if you're running a track that needs the rear shocks standing more upright you can just slap the CR bones and hubs on - sweet.

Fiddy:

I think most of us now run the CR rear end pretty much everywhere, i think it helps the back end feel a little more planted.

Blimey....I've fallen behind! ::eh?:

Thanks Lee,

Russ.

good skills, cheers Ash ;)

So just to clarify a few things:

For all these mods i would need.......

XXXCR Rear Wishbones
XXXCR Rear Hubs
?????? 0° or 2° Anti Squat Blocks dependant on choice
?????? CVD's

Anything else?

Cheers

Ryan

Is it thanks to the inner shock hole, or do you also use the short VLA setting?

xxxcr wishbones are stronger,have the extra vla and its use able,(haven't tried it yet myself)hubs have height adjustable ball studs,no need to run cvd's,just personnel choice,

Ryan,

To do the XXX CR rear end you ONLY need the wishbones and hubs. The toe in blocks you'll already have 1 set on the car. What I would say though is these do break (I've broken these but never, ever brokena a rear wishbone) so getting some spares would be a wise move. Personally I use 0 deg and washer accordingly, but each to their own.

You should not need any mods to driveshafts, the driveshafts on all Losi's are the same with the exception of the BK2, which have ever fitted an x5/xx4 with any mods. Edit, just realised the possible point of confusion, the cvd's and dogbones are fundamentally the same dimensions, it's purely personal choice as what to run. For me I always run CVD's!

Gayo, I think it's in part becasue the link is a little longer and higher at the outer end, where as on the old CR hubs , the height was not adjustable and got lower towards the outer hole. Of course as with so many things, it might all be in our heads ;)

I've yet to try Short VLA.

Cheers for clearing that up Dan :D

This might be a silly question, but is there any advantage to running 2 deg instead of 0 deg when running them flipped?

if you flip a 2 degree it will give you pro squat, i may be wrong but I'm pretty sure thats a huge no no,

Anyone got a part number for 0 degree anti-squat blocks and anti-squat shims?

DMS134 FELLA;)

There for the X6 not the X5 numpty :p

Although you have made made Darren a few extra pennies with that post :lol:

Thanks :thumbsup: ;)

Yer.....I'd forgotten all about them, until Stegger reminded me :thumbsup:

Ryan, just had a quick look and I can see your order on our online system. Just quick, I will add the Losi roll bar as requested at the bottom, but we dont do the piano wire, so you will have to source that elsewhere mate, possibly locally...

Cheers, Darren

No probs, Cheers Darren :thumbsup:

Hi guy, i know this is a old post but i need to ask what other alu rear upright fit on the cr rear arms? Cause i dun really like to use the Holly XXX-CR rear upright.

Will the B4 rear upright fit onto the xxxcr arms?

I don't know for sure, but I do know that AE uses 7/64" hinge pins while Losi uses 1/8" so you'd have to drill the AE part out to 1/8".
