I need new parts

[Team-Losi XX-T]

I have an old '96 XX-T and need some new parts for it. The bottom is all scratched up and I need a new Front shock tower. Im also getting a Pivot block cause the other one is broken.

How much would it cost to change the bottom of the truck, get a new body (don't care what it is) and get a new front shock tower?

You might have to get some off ebay
New Original Body - http://cgi.ebay.com/Losi-A8016-Truck-Body-XXT_W0QQitemZ360173108790QQcmdZViewItemQQptZRadio_ Control_Parts_Accessories?hash=item53dbfd7e36&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
Shock Tower - http://cgi.ebay.com/TEAM-LOSI-XXT-FRONT-SHOCK-TOWER-A-1108_W0QQitemZ200370285215QQcmdZViewItemQQptZRadio _Control_Parts_Accessories?hash=item2ea6ffea9f&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116
The rear pivot block is different between the XXT & XXT CR & XXT Graphite. If it is the XXT the pivot block is also attached to the pivot plate and that part number is A2120 which is here http://cgi.ebay.com/TEAM-LOSI-A-2120-XX%2FXX-REAR-PIVOT-SUPPORT-%234-NIB_W0QQitemZ300340221974QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ2009 0820?IMSfp=TL090820163007r33500 Pretty sure that would be the one you would need but can't see why it couldn't be used on all 3 anyway.
Remember that the body comes clear and will require special polycarbonate paint. You could probably try other truck bodies and see if they will fit

Don't know the last time I bought Losi packaging that was black and gold. Did you uncle give you any instruction manuals etc.

The bottom will get scratched up and as long as it is not broken leave it alone . Parts are starting to get hard to come by for your truck so be careful not to break too many .

The only place you will find shock towers and most other parts are on ebay . I seen front shock towers going around $7 -$10 . I would buy up on some spare parts if you can . As for bodies , they are on ebay as well but Losipartshouse.com has them also . Here is a link to what I found on ebay .

This seller has a few parts -

Hope this helps .

Also what might be a good idea is to find another truck cheap for parts .

Thanks for the help. Im probably going to stock up on shokc towers and pivot blocks.

I do have a manual I printed out. It shows every part on th XX-T.

[Alan]

Try and see if one shop on ebay has all the parts in stock so you don't have to pay 3 postage costs. Is that manual the parts explode I posted up?
There was two other versions of the XXT out - the CR and Graphite, below is their parts explode aswell so you can compare the 3 when it comes to parts

XXT Graphite - http://web.archive.org/web/20010612101132/www.teamlosi.com/pdfs/exploded/xxtgraph.pdf

[Alan]

If you have a look at the CR and Graphite one you'll notice that the pivot block isn't attached to the bottom plate. It looks like a straight swap and I would try and do this setup instead as the pivot block on the cr and graphite a2113 is still made and you would be able to purchase it from your Local Hobby Shop. You would just have to find the bottom plate A2107 but there doesn't seem to be any on ebay. Losi did do an update kit for the XXT for the other setup http://cgi.ebay.com/TEAM-LOSI-DOUBLE-XT-CR-SUSP-UPDATE-KIT-A-0903_W0QQitemZ200335442937QQcmdZViewItemQQptZRadio _Control_Parts_Accessories?hash=item2ea4ec43f9&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116 but not to sure if it is really worth $30 as you can buy a 2nd hand roller for that much as there is a few xxt's on ebay at the moment - http://toys.shop.ebay.com/Radio-Control-Vehicles-/117015/i.html?_nkw=losi+xxt&_catref=1&_dmpt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&_fln=1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m282

Alright I have a CR. I can just go to a hobby store near my fathers work. Im going to try to persuade him to get me the rear pivot block and front shock tower (I can get online.)

And yes the manual is the exploded kit.

[Alan]

He might even have the pivot block in stock as it is used on the current buggy etc. Front shock tower you will probably have to get on ebay. Ask the shop if they have a body for the XXX-T in stock and take your XXT in and see if it is possible to mount it to yours (could just see if he has any 1/10 truck bodies in stock) Good luck

[Team-Losi XX-T]

Thanks. Im going to have to get up early tomorrow. First day of school. Im going to try and also get some slot cars. They look so fun.


Now to go and try to find some front shock towers.

Hey xx-t call BnD Hobbies at 318-354-0710 talk to the guy he might be able to help you out

[Team-Losi XX-T]

Im in O.C. (949)


The hobby store in Costa Mesa (Ultimate Hobbies) has one thing I need.

Then I could get the Front Shock Tower from Losiparts.com



I'll try and call him though, see if he could give me any tips on my truck

[odieyodie]

:):) IF anyone has any xxt parts available you might list them here. I betcha there might be some takers.;)

Just for the record I heard the parts from a Duratrax Evader truck are the same except the tranny which is an AE truck copy.

Actually they are a copy off the Losi XX-T .
