Default Losi XX4 Improvements...

Seeing as this car is still around, I am wondering what improvements people have done to their cars for UK tracks...

I have mentioned on here about the bevillve washers for the diffs, which can be replaced by the monster diff spring set..

I also have Chris Long outdrive savers for the rear diff, and have tried a one-way diff in the front. At the last indoor meeting, I tried a diff in the front with a tightish clicker and preferrred it a lot more.

I also have an Atomic Carbon rear brace instead of the flappy one!

Flipping the rear anti squat blocks over from left to right, dremel down the nobbly bits and put a anti squat washer at the front of them.

Dremel a hole in the bottom shock tower from the bottom and run a screw in there to stop as many breakages.

WTF!! that makes no sense, do you mean rear shock tower?
I have also looked into the B2/B3 Front Brace for the front wishbones...

either. where the tower goes up you dremel from underneath to strengthen it. It's not simple as if your off you will ruin the tower. I have only seen the front done, I have it done on mine too.
I have been using a b3 front brace for ages, works well.
