Losi 22 to Losi 22.2

[KBRacing]

Hi All,

I've Got a Losi 22 and would like to know, what parts do you need, to make a Losi 22 in to a Losi 22.2....??

Have a look on "rc tech". There is a full list with part numbers etc.

In short if you want every upgrade that the 2.0 offers it's cheaper to buy a new kit than buy all the parts you need.

To build a 22 1.5 you need F/R arms, hubs, spindles, and steering rack. None of the front end parts will work with each other (old and new) you have to replace all of them to use the new geometry and rack.
The diff is a vast improvement over the old one so if that has worn out it's worth getting the new parts. Driveshafts are not a big difference but it's nice to have the option to alter them - narrow or wide but it's only 1mm change. Slipper clutch I guess depends how much trouble you had with the old one, again it's better but some people have already fitted the Avid Triad which works well.

There is a list somewhere on the web from Losi themselves listing every part required, I think it's on RCtech or some such, a web search should find it but it's a long and expensive list.

I have a 2.0 and a buddy of mine had the 1.0. Difference in driving beheaviour is quite noticable (the 2.0 being much more predictable mid corner). Now he has made a 1.5 by mounting the front hubs, spindles, front arms and steering rack and it drives pretty much like a 2.0 now. I think those are the major things to replace setup wise. The rest is more reliability/bling stuff

Pretty comprehensive list.

You missed the bleeder shock caps.

I am half way through converting mine. for the shock and geometry changes. And am 100% regretting not just buying the kit.

The only thing that's different in terms of geometry and make a real difference to handling is the spindle/ castor block and steering rack. All pick up points on the wishbones are the same except the rear has 3 holes instead of 2 for shock mount which is a new inner hole.

If you have these parts you can achieve the same setup as someone with a 2.0.

Thanks.
