Default Only one tire in front spins.

I think I broke something in my front differental. Only one tire (front right) won't spin when trying to climb a rock. This is the 2nd day of having my Losi!

You can get them at really any hobby shop, I run the Losi lockers and they are nice.
It is a realitivly easy fix, you just take the axle apart, it took me 45 minutes to an hour for both axles

nope that wont help ya... well it will by beefing up the trans but you need this set to fix your front diff http://cgi.ebay.com/LOSI-LOSB1434-Di...d=p4634.c0.m14 the pieces that kinda look like crosses are the diff lockers... the other piece are the plastic version of what you linked to and for the trans center diff.


I also looked for ya and could not find ANY metal lockers at the usuall places.

The stock lockers suckk A$$. Just buy the metal ones. I just replace mine 2 days ago.the stocker lasted 4 months.... the new metal ones will take you about 20 min. per axle. its easy. I would do both axles if i were you. because the others will break soon.

I machined a few sets out of aluminum for Toybuilder last summer so that he would have them in time for a competition one weekend. I think he is still running them.
