Default Knuckle weights and steering links

I can not believe I am about to release a product for the Losi Comp Crawler!

Truth be told, I have always wanted to make these so just a little push was all it took. I am glad I did too as I really think they turned out great.

These knuckles have a bigger than stock outer bearing that measures 5x13 and use a 6x12 inner bearing. This will add reliability. Top that off with bearings in the kingpins, proper length steering arms, proper ackerman, knuckle weight and strength and you will see that these are an obvious choice.

You use stock C hubs. The only mod you will need to do to get these to fit is to trim the length of the stock kingpin down a hair so it does not rub the CVD.

An all brass knuckle is shown but you can get them in any material just like the other knuckles I make.

Pricing is on my website. I have the pair shown that I can send today. All other orders will take approx 2 weeks as I will need to wait and make them in a batch.

Thanks for the good words guys!

I have the order together, I just need to make the knuckles since I dont normally stock the LCC knuckles. It will be a little bit more and then I will get it all out for you.

If youre ordering these, you should order them ASAP. I am about to make a batch and it would help avoid the wait.

If some of you guys don't take advantage of this, you are really going to be missing out on a great product! The only reason I'm doing the Mod I'm doing is it fits some needs that are different than what Erik offers. Besides, this is a business for Dlux and just a hobby for me, between us maybe we can get some more Losi Crawlers dusted off!
And by the way, I get some of my parts /products from Erik, mainly because he has great prices and a great guy to work with.

Anyone built a set of these yet?..I can't seem to get the king pin to center ..there is a lot of room around it. I know the little tab goes on top to capture the king pin..I left it off for a reference


This is the third set of Dlux knuckles I've built and haven't had this issue...is there supposed to be pillow balls that surround the king pin?..a build thread or any info would be helpful..thx fellas

Just wanted to show Erik's Weighted knuckles on a XR width modified Losi axle.
This one has a clamping style C-hub, and the axle weighs in at 460 grams.





Nice product Erik!!!

Ok Erik, here is your knuckles on the new VP Ascender Currie axle. I just finished the formula for marrying these today.



Couldn't use all of that could you?



Got her mounted up this afternoon.







And a look from under side.
