Losi front CVD axles

[super__dan]

I'm after new (ideally) and or used outer axles for the front CVD's on a xx4 / xxx4.

I know there is a part number for these but in the same way there is a part number for front steel CVD set, i.e. you can't actually get them. If anyone KNOWS different to this please let me know.

I'd like a pair of new to go with a rebuild set and new steel bones I have, but also some spares as I have been known to break these

If anyone has bought a complete set of aluminium ones and just wants the bones and not the axles, let me know!

Dan I thought we chatted about this on Sunday. You buy the complete set, preferable steel but don't mind Alloy, and I'll buy the bones off you on their own.

[super__dan]

We did, but I want more than 1 set anyway, and if someone's offering them very cheap

[Northy]

If you find some, sell two to Rich Coates, then he can give them back to me!

Hi chaps! MIP themsleves rather than Losi do sell the axles "sort of" seperate (you get two axles, two wheel nuts and the two wheel hexs all in a set). Losi where only ever sanctioned to sell whole CVD sets for thier cars, but MIP do sell all the components individually (or in pairs at least). If I get chance I will check out the part number of the "axle set" when at the shop tommorow for you.

[super__dan]

Please let me know (first option ideally) if you have any or more specifically if you can get them. I knew about the parts numbers but when Dom from DC racing tried to get me some before (12months or so ago) they were on order for months and never materialised at Horizonm (Helger), hence my problem.

Many thanks!

Sorry its took a few days to check for you, but its been a bit busy/hectic. We do have three options for the XX4 front axles, all in stock. Firstly I assume you are looking for the 3/16 size versions to run the same bearings as the rear. These are available as the "3/16 axle upgrade" part no MIP1273 at £14.95, this includes 2 axles, 2 nuts, 2 wheel pins, 2 CVD pins, grub scrws, axle bearing spacers and threadlock NOT the wheel hexs like I thought though.

Second option is actually a complete set of Street Weapon CVDs part no MIP1243, obviuosly the driveshafts themselves are too short but the rest at the outer end is all exactly the same as the XX4/XXX4 the added bonus is you do also get the CVD barrel coupling with these which can be useful, they are priced at £18.95 to clear at the moment.

Lastly we do still have the complete CVDs in alloy from MIP, part number MIP1305 at £34.60 which are now hard to come by, which is the full CVd set with the 3/16 axles

All three are in stock in reasonable(ish) numbers

Hope this helps, Darren

Darren,

Thanks for your efforts, MUCH appreciated!

Before I ring (will be post weekend actually), can you confirm there is no complete STEEL front driveshaft set, and though I know I'm really pushing it, a shiney's version?

[Darren Boyle]

Sorry Dan, no steel or shiny versions now, I have doubled checked with Dave at Horizon too and they are now both obsolete from MIP as well.

[losixxx]

don't the MIP 1201 fit the front of the xx4/x-5??

just double checked, it doesnt

[Darren Boyle]

MIP 1201 are truck rears, fits all XXX derived trucks - electric or nitro

I have been going through Adams XX4 bits and found some complete drive shafts which I will fetch to Worksop Sunday.

[super__dan]

Hi Lindsay,

As you'll no doubt now know I wasn't at Worksop yesterday but am still interested in those driveshafts so keep hold of them for mu Until the Supercup if you don't mind?

Got a few weekends off racing.

Dan

[super__dan]

Balls, I forgot to ask you again yesterday Lindsay.

Worksop next week?
