Well another parts pile later and I have an almost complete XXL roller(minus a transmission). I had to rob a couple screws from the other LST to get it together but I'll be ordering new parts to swap back into the XXL. I also need to figure out a battery tray.

I have to say I felt extremely newbish to LST stuff while work on these trucks. I didn't realize that the XXL uses 20mm hexes however the nuts are standard 17mm. I went searching high and low for something along a 20mm wrench or socket. Then I tried and realized it was a 17mm. What a sigh of relief and embarrassment.

The TD-Racing products came in. I absolutely love the functionality and structure of the motor mount. An absolute must have for those doing conversions!

I'll be using a single JR9100T servo in the XXL. I'll most likely stick with the stock dual servos in the LST.

Time for some pictures:






And here's the power for the XXL, a Neu 1521/1Y/S



There's a lot of real estate on the XXL chassis. I may pick up another XXL chassis and rails to swap into the LST. However, I may look into using a Revo transmission offset to the side and mount the batteries next to the tranny. All weight in the middle of the truck.
