RE: Mini LST body
Wow and I thought it was just black.. I have been in this hobby for about four years and have yet to paint a body.. Might need to try it soon. When you are doing multi color design, do you just tape off the section(s) you don't' want painted yet? I never really understood how to paint..

RE: Mini LST body
I'll try to post some up soon (few days).. It isn't anything special[sm=red_smile.gif] and at the moment it's broke. It really is still stock besides deans connectors and JR servos (just the stuff thats needed to keep it running).. I had a lot of plans for it, including a nice brushless system but one day I experienced the fun of Nitro and all my electrics stated collecting dust..
About two weeks ago I took it for a spin and the rear wheel feel off (my fault) and I lost the little pin and nut.. Which reminds me, I still need to order those parts lol.
I should start working on it, it is a very nice truck; I just have been having more fun with the Nitro side of this Hobby.

RE: Mini LST Pics :EDIT:
No i painted it from the inside, thanks.Dokioto,the springs are stiffer much more firm then stock i love em 10x better,my stock spings would hardly hold the trck up much less take a jump i can drop mine from about 3 feet not wothout it bottoming out so im not worried when im jumping there great,and i have MIP metal pinions in the diff i wont upgrade anything else on the driveshaft till it breaks,which iim sure something will when i get my brushless system.and i have to get some more deans yea i know i need to get some.

My suspension was really soft in the beginning also, I just put some heavier shock fluid in it.. Those blue shocks look cooler though;
they even match your new body

RE: Mini LST Pics :EDIT:
hey i'm a new LST owner as of today. I love the look of this little thing. But can someone please tell me how to make it stop slipping so much..... I tightened the screw on the spur gear thinking that would help some but it still slips really bad. I'm now thinking it's something with the front and rear diffs. is there something i can buy, and if so where, to make it not slip? Like new one way diffs. Please help. Thanks Joe
