Losi Baja Rey 1/10th 4WD RTR desert truck

[greengoblin]

Mine is at home now from ss just have to assembly. U do know that the wrath set pin is in the wrong place. How ever u can get the yoks for the vaterra Ascender and they fit perfectly

[84yoda]

Ya, I didn't look that closely but good to know.

[greengoblin]

Ill post all the part numbers when mine is done

[84yoda]

I looked at it again and I'm pretty sure wraith output yokes with the little lip grounded down will work.

[greengoblin]

Just going to leave this here.

Mip14296 yoke 2 required
Mip10135 female Barrel 1 required
Mip 1147 rebuild kit
Super shafty exclusive 3.40 long shaft.

I will have to enlarge the hole in the pinion and transmission output from .o77 to.095" for the set pin

[84yoda]

Sweet.

Will the stock losi grub screw thread into the mip yokes? Sucks to have to drill out the outputs.

What mip grub screw are used? There's 2 different ones. Skinny or fat threads. Wonder if the pin on the grub screw is any different between the two.

[greengoblin]

Its the slim one for a scx10

[84yoda]

For sure. Well, what about the losi grub screw, that doesn't work with mip yoke?

The yokes take the scx10 pin. The Yokes are for the vaterra Ascender which in the long run is Losi design

[84yoda]

Look up mip #11111. That uses the bigger grub screw and I wonder if the stock losi grub screw will work.

This woud be the next issue
A 1.95 mm pin in a 4.13mm hole on the othe side. That woud brake stuff and look like this

[84yoda]

Ok I think I got it figured out. My buddy liked the idea too. So to run the mip #11111 yokes, just cut down the losi grub screw pin part and run 2 in each side and the cut down pins will meet in the middle. Because drilling the outputs sounds easy but I'll pass on that.

Some progress on the losi rock rey to baja rey. Complete disassemble and replacmet of worn parts. Befor and after

[greengoblin]

As im working on the Rock rey conversion I just want to let everyone know that you cannot use the rock Rey front shaft with the Baja rey suspension. The shock gets in the way.

I've done the rear but there is so much crap at the front, I'm not sure if I need to totally disassemble the front end to get at the diff.

Same with the centre diff...it looks like you have to pull the metal spine plate, rollcage, ESC etc etc...

Any info would be helpful as IFS is much more complicated to get at the diff than a solid axle.

I've had the whole damn rig apart at this point! The front is kind of a pain in the A in terms of just getting everything apart. But, there aren't any major "gotchas". Just take your time and take some pictures as you go for reference to put back together.

Cheers mewalsh100! I just rebuilt the front diff, gearbox and transfer case on my Yeti so I'm planning on tackling the RR next.

It wasn't too bad TBH but there were a lot of screws to undo and put back...your arm gets pretty tired after a while! lol I'm now thinking an electric screwdriver is in my future! ha!

Anyone else see vanquish's progress on the currie axle for the baja/rock rey, should be coming out sometime soon.

[mewalsh100]

Ok, so I just shelled the pinion bearings in the front diff. Seems like all I do is replace bearings on this thing! Anyway, does anyone have a recommendation on bearings at this point?

Look up Jims bearings on Facebook
