I wonder what the difference is between your rig and mine Harvo? We both have V.P. knuckles and chubs

Measured mine on an 1/8 scale setup board so I know my rig is 180mm eye to eye at exactly zero toe in. Maybe our axle housings were manufactured with loose specs and are slightly different?? 3mm went somewhere

Mine is 180mm also with VP knuckles. He must have one of those Polish metric rulers.

I love bacon and Ti.
I still see no kit for the XR on their site, just LCC, MRC, AX-10.
My Lunsford is a cool guy. He gave me the weight of his 130mm Rock Grinders a couple days ago, came in at .3 oz, half the weight of my current 3/8 delrin bent rear lowers it will replace.

I run a Lunsford TI link on mine.
I used the 140mm link with Jato ends... all you need to do is add some Revo 2mm pushrod spacers on each side and it will be the perfect length with Vanquish knuckles

.
Yeah it would be nice if Lunsford makes one the perfect size.... but I really see no need when the 140mm and a couple little spacers works just fine...

Good initiative contacting Lunsford. Their products are always top notch on all scales of r/c!

Grind two flat spots at each end where the threads end. You could use a 4mm tierod wrench and not have anything to hang up.

Toe out I'm 176/177 ish ...... Zero toe puts me at the same 180ish eye to eye.



The only good I think about an XR Ti kit is if you run a stock chassis. What would really be nice is if they made all their rock slider links the way they did the LCC ones.

Angled at each end and turned down smaller in the middle. Two birds one stone - act like rock sliders and less weight. Now that's something worth 10$ a blank.

Wow this is a blast from the past!! Lol

Nowa days we have two great link vendors on this site...I would talk to chaotic crawlers or dlux for you links needs on all axles and chassis...they both do amazing work!
