I am still in the process of mounting the rear bumper, after that i'll be done. That isn't my truck, the only difference is I made the extended T plate and upper brace out of carbon fiber.

Ah, cool. Way to do it the way Losi should have done it :D

Thanks, I tried the strike and I didn't like it at all. I refuse to work on a AE vehicle so I get the drive ability of a sc10 and it's easy to work on like a losi(plus I just prefer losi over AE so i'm happy)

and hopefully these new tires and wheels will bethere so you can run that xxx-sct truck this weekend. ill put a deliervy conformation number on it so you can have something to go by if it doesnt arrive friday and you have to have them hold it for you saturday morning for pickup on the way to your race.

the components really arent overheating its more that the system is acting as if the cpu and gpu are overheated.

the 3 rings almost always mean you just have some type of cold solder joint in either the cpu or gpu chips.

now there are cases where things are actually overheated and burnt out but thats rare on a typical 360.

but like you said go on youtube and do one of the xclamp mods on it and it almost always works as long as the 360 isnt totally effed.

will cost 20 bucks at max for screws, washers, and the thermal paste

ive fixed a grip of 360s and havent failed yet with this fix.

if you havent gotten ahold of the other guy i can fix them also.

good luck!

btw my sc10 will stomp your xxx-sct

good deal man!

i try and only fix xbox's that have already been tampered with.. no reason to risk me trying to fix it if microsoft can do it!

[maxair45]

I went to get the shipping label and it's going to take 10 days to get to me...via email....I got ahold of the guy on here who does it and i'll send it to him, i'm not waiting 10 days.

what do you think the xclamp is? its a better solution to cooling as it adds more pressure to the components thus increasing the thermal conductivity...
i dont see how thats related to a cold joint.
