8ight-t race roller conversion problem - 06.18.2009, 12:27 AM

I have the Losi electric conversion kit for my 8ight-t, i also have the mamba monster 2200kv combo, with the losi electric conversion kit do i need to dremel out some areas on the chassis of my 8ight-t race roller? doesnt look like things are lining up correctly and the package it came in doesnt have anything but an exploded view on how to put together, not very helpful. HELP!

I am using my 8ight-t 1.0 stock race roller chassis, with the 48t metal spur gear and the losi electric conversion, here is what i have. Its like i need to cut a slot out for the Spur gear teeth to fit. Am i supposed to use the plastic SPUR gear that came with the conversion kit? I thought you could use any Spur gear.

I'm pretty sure that you have to swap spurs to the 45T that the Losi kit comes with, thats why they give it.

Also, if you go with the Tekno kit you have, you can maintain the 48T spur and open your gearing options up a little bit more.

Plastic spurs are good for non-hardened pinions. But RC-M, Tekno, and RR pinions are all hardened so they are ok against either steel or plastic spurs. Your choice now.

Some people like the lighter rotating mass of the plastic. And less noise.
