Losi ball cups on 501X

[Eddie168]

Will the original tamiya ball stud fit the Losi ball cup? and will the orignal turnbuckle fit on Losi ball cup? THX

I tried this Eddie, and it was really tight...so tight the ball cup wouldn't move at all!

I had to fit Losi ball studs in order to use Losi cups.

Ive got a pack of LOSI ball caps (LOSA6015) i want to use, have you got a size/pt no for the one's you used Russ.

I got Hot Bodies D4 ball studs for my 501X to use with the losi ball cups. Yokomo ones work also I'm told

I'd agree with Jimmy on this. The losi ball studs are imperial and although can be made to fit in the metric threads of the TRF, they tend to come loose a lot and the fit is less than ideal plus not good for the thread obviously.

Where can i get yokomo or hotbodies ball stud and Losi ball cup? and can i use the oriangal tamiya turnbuckle with losi ball cup? thx

Have you had any problems with the hot bodies ball studs jimmy, as i want to put losi whites on a project 501

Not mate, they have been fine. I've only used them with the HB ball cups myself (on the 501X). The same car has the losi white cups on now but it's not been used since being rebuilt.

Ive used both Yokomo and HB ones with losi cups mate with no issues with either
