| Rear steer for the LCC?
So how does it look for rear steering? is it like the AxiaL with spacers there for future moves to rear steer?

Why do you want rear steer? Can't compete that way and the F&R dig is far more useful IMHO. Plus, you will have to figure out how to get around the rear straight axles to get the rear to become a steering axle. | |

looks like it will work just like an axial, if they have a steering kit for it like axial does it will work no problem as far as I can see.

Hi guys, The top 2.2 class in Australia allows 4WS. On checking the manual it looks like the Losi has a spacer on the rear axles that can be removed and then you can put in the c-hubs and knuckles to make 4WS. You will need bearings and drive axles also. I would imagine a rear steer kit will come out pretty soon. Cheers, Mike. |

I don't see a rear steer setup coming soon, since this rig is a comp crawler and "most" places don't allow rear steer in comps.

Can't you just buy the front steering parts and put them on the rear axle? I was thinking about trying it with a reversing Y-harness. Whatever that is, I'm new to electric. |

| I think that's exactly what you can do,,,,what radio do you have. I would want to set it up completely seprate and independant of the front for maximum control,,,

You better find some even bigger, betterer, stronger, super duper cvd's if your going to run rear steer. I can see it now, your going for the final gate and BANG, POP, SMASH, 4 cvd's GONE!!!! But atleast you still have 4ws. |

I bought a heavy duty Y harness reverser today. (EXRA325) It looks nice has some type of capacitor or BEC built in. I know it's kinda pointless with the dig, but it might help to wiggle back and forth to get over stuff. I don't have a remote yet, still building the car, But I think I'm going with a DX3R |
