These are smaller... Maybe be able to get/make a hub adapter to run 2wd tires all around, that would look BA.

"to all chaos owners: replace the clutch bell needle bearing with 3 4X7 bearings. sportwerks used a needle bearing to hold up the clutch bell. you know, the bearings that have little steel rollers encased in a plastic housing? yeah. I replaced the clutch bell bearings with 3 of them"
Mike, you're thinking CRT.5. They use 1/10 buggy rear tires.

Also, check the clearance between the front outdrive and the fuel tank. When my son got one when they were first released, the outdrive would rub the fuel tank, wearing ALMOST through. A quick call to Horizon resulted in a free replacement tank AND outdrive shaft. This did seem to fix the problem.
The only other issue, was the fact that there is only one brake, which with a center diff, sometimes made for some tricky driving. Just lock the center diff and this problem will go away also. Losi 8ight - Go .21 7-port Inferno GT - Gsx .27

Ok. so I was at Leisure today looking at two that had come in for service.
I was looking at the steering; it's pretty much the same setup as the 18t, which is prone to slop. Plus those tie rods were junk; there was so much play it wasn't even funny. So I think if I were to get one, I would have to make a custom plate to fix the steering slop and tighten up the servo saver. Then, some actual turn buckles would be needed...
