The spacer that comes with axle #5661 is 0.060" and that fits the X - 6 Squared perfectly.
#5660 was a replica of the axle designed for the Losi BK2 and was sold with no spacer. Several Family members had found the BK2 axle to work better than the B4 axle, and we could make them quickly with no engineering/design work. They needed a spacer of about 0.100" to work, but that actually spaced the dogbone too far in, resulting in the dogbone bottoming out in the outdrive on rare occasions. The LOSA3016 spacer works as well as anything.
Therefore, instead of making a second production run of #5660, we did the work and produced the proper axle & spacer, #5661. They will be back in stock in a week or two. (Finally!)
Also, we are now producing the complete C-C.V.D. kit, #5800. This does both sides of the car and fits both the Squared and Original. Of course it includes the #5661 axles and spacers.
Hope this helps, Peter.
