    Ha, perfectly valid point but I still want your lots opinions.

    Its a LST Aftershock apparently.....looks ok, got OK servos and a Losi 454 engine, the clutch has worn apparently so a new one is needed for the two speed setup....is the LST Aftershock a worthy truck? is it work the swap for my buggy? I would say I am expecting something valued in the region of

    Hi Folks, I have the opportunity to trade my Losi 8ight brushless buggy for an LST 1.

    Should I be concerned about anything? are they any good?

    Cheers.

    Be aware that there are some quite significant differences between the LST(1) and LST2 or XXXL. The LST2 is much stronger and more durable than it's predecessor, getting an LST to LST2 spec isn't going to be cheap.

    I think the chassis rails are beefier, the A-Arms, rear fixed hubs, c-hubs, steering knuckles, CVD's are all stronger than those on the LST.

    Find out if it's have any of those upgrades to see if it's a worthwhile trade.

    The fact it's clean suggests they've been rebuilt recently or at least topped up. It could be either, the four screws weren't tightened enough or the paper gasket is damaged.

    I'd take the four screw's out and check what it's like in there. In all honesty, if your going brushless then your best rebuilding them and shimming them to avoid any play and therefore wear.

    The LST Forums have been on and off for a couple years now. Nobody really know what's going on with them, they're missing for weeks or months at a time, then back only for a short time before disappearing again.

    One of the guys from there started a new forum and most of the guys from the LST Forums were there but that too appears to have vanished, at least the link I have isn't working... Weird.

    Edit- Haha... That'll teach me for posting and reading properly. The link was the Losi Forums, not LST Forums... Still weird...

    mattmatt, have a little look in the monsters thread linked in my signature, there is some leccy lst info in there with pics, from early on and recent rebuild, not completed, with changed layout. If JayJ is about a bit these days, he`s a good guy to ask for info, I can help out a bit, but rusty these days :0, the dude does ship to the uk, I run his stuff on mine, along with JJ and I`m sure a few others and its properly the best. That combo will be fine, as mentioned 4s with a decent c rating, 30 min with a good burst rate will give you a good punch. Plus being an lst, not lst2, your truck has a few more weak spots, but you`ll soon work out what they are.

    Order up a pr losi 8t hd diff cases losb3258, and get some shims losb3951, and build your diffs with these.

    Good luck, keep asking the questions and throw up a thread.

    Honestly B, I haven't been in the game for a while now... Funds unfortunately. Just can't afford the things I want so just stopped. Sold up most of my RC's including the Baja, D8Te, MBX-6Te. I do still have my LST2, the still unfinished XXXL Muggified E-LST build and my first ever RC, Mini LST2...lol

    I've probably forgotten more than you have, my memory is terrible. [emoji6]

    It's been over a year since I last ran my LST2, need a new engine and had bigger priorities but maybe this year... Lol

    Wrighty8766, I might but will have to check as it's been a while since I had looked at my extensive collection of spare parts.

    SOLD: Mugen Seiki MBX-6Te Roller with upgrades.

    in For RC Sales

    Posted · Edited by JayJ

    Here I have for sale my MBX-6Te roller. This roller has many good quality upgrades by Mugen Seiki themselves as well as RC Monster, King Headz, T-Bone and Maximizer. This 6Te is virtually M spec.

    This Truggy started life a nitro but was later converted to electric, before it came to me with RC Monster battery tray with ESC mount and RC Monster motor mount. Since I bought it I have stripped it down and rebuilt it with the above after market parts including King Headz front and rear chassis braces, Mugen Seiki aluminium servo saver plate, Mugen Seiki aluminium front upper arm mount, and Mugen Seiki front and rear aluminium toe/anti squat blocks. Also included in the rebuild, new diff cases, front, centre and rear diff outdrives, suspension arms, hinge pins, bulkheads, turnbuckles, chassis and stone guards and new bearings. This truggy also includes Maximizer Beadlocks with HPI tyres and T-Bone front and rear bumpers, the T-Bone bumper are well worn but still have some life in them.

    As you can see from the pictures this is a great Truggy, all you need do is add , Tx & Rx, a servo, motor, ESC and batteries to complete this Truggy. I will also include, a brand new Pro-Line Bulldog body, this has been cut but unsprayed, a used Bulldog body (it'll need new holes as it's off something else but is still good for bashing) and lots of spares as shown in pictures.

    T'is a shame about the LST Forums, I had posts on there as did Chris (78.8) which are now gone forever...  :(

     

    My LST2 is in the shed, a non-runner... I "E" converted ot but missed the Nitro sound and smell so sold the ESC and motor but haven't gotten around to putting an engine back in it. I will one day.
