It is a RTR Pro so it came with the aluminum a-arms other than the buggy upper arm conversion and the 17mm hubs its pretty much stock now. I had a Go-Tech 5 port .21 in it for a while but to be honest the stock .26 is a pretty decent easy to tune mill. I dont bash at all I only race and on the club level the LSP can be very competetive, unless your local track is the Dirt or Rev..lol Here is a list of everything I used to do the 22 degree hub, buggy upper arm and 17mm conversion.

Upper A-arm conversion 22 degree conversion.
Part#
8011-1 22 degree C-hubs
8134 Screw and ball for steering
8012 Upper susp pins
8116 Suspension holder
8158 Plastic A-arms
KYOIS053 Kyosho ball ends
8003 Lightning bumper

17mm conversion
SWK3177 front axle stubs
8065 rear axle stubs
Kyosho Kanai 3 17mm hubs(free from a friend)

lilmegill727

thanks! the first thing im gonna do is the 17mm hub conversion. can i use any 17mm hubs i want for it? thanks!

lilmegill727

hey guys! i got my LSP the other day and drove it today for the first time and broke the wing mount![:@] does anyone make a aluminum wing mount for it? also for the buggy shock tower conversion, do i just need the shock towers? which ones? do i need to mod anything? and finally should i do the buggy shock towers on front and back? im gonna be racing my LSP soon, what should i do to it? its all plastic except chassis and shock towers. the guy before me switched it to plastic. what are the Best CF peices for it to make it lighter? ill be getting the 17mm hub conversion next week. thanks! i love the LSP

thanks
Jrod

lilmegill727

any body have any suggestions on motors for these?

jrodri4566

O.S. 30VG or the new OS truggy engine ($329.99) - Tower Hobbies, .30VG much cheaper but, not sur ewhat kinda top end you will get.

ok so i ripped out all of the electronics in my stadium sport, and install my Futaba 3PKS system with all digital Hi-Tec servos, and a 6.0V 1400mah battery pack, changed the fuel tubing, installed a fuel filter, and used a trinity ant. tube. GS exhaust deflector and zip tied everything nice and neat.
What other upgrades or changes should be done??
any ideas?

Wasup guys , I moved and the closes track is to far now , no more racing for now so I been thinking on a CORR conversion (SC8, Slayer )on my Pro-R truggy , any ideas on which buggy arms , cvd's , hubs & carriers etc. to use , and if you guys think I should change the center diff gear too , thankx!!

Coaltrain

I have thought about it too, but it will be fairly expensive. You would need Lightning buggy A-arms, cvd's, turnbuckles, spur gear, shock towers and shocks. SC8 body, wheels, tires, and find a way to mount up the fr/rr bumpers as well. I'm going to try it after I get my D8T using the LSP-R shocks and towers but I dont think it will work with the shorter a-arms.

lilmegill727

what steering servo are you using in yours? the stock one sucks. do you have the buggy shock towers on it? if so do they help much?

tantaran69

My Feedback: (3)

Why do you think that change the shocks and towers is need it. I think just changing da arms , da cvd's , da spur and cut and mod da turnbuckle would be enough 2 start , whenever u got da chance 2 c if those arms fit let me know please, I'll use the stock bumpers 4 now and 1/8 tires, SC8 body can wait until I got the truck all set up, thanks 4 da reply!!!! Hey lil727 if u r just bashing 4 now, just get any hi torq metal gear servo ( hitec, ace even towers) don't go and spend big bucks on digital servos and expensive brands , r u running a servo saver, if not get one!!!!!!!!!

lilmegill727

ok thanks! will do ill be getting a metal servo soon! do you think i could use the hi-tec hs-645mg for now?thanks

tantaran69

My Feedback: (3)

Yeah that's a good servo , actually I'm running one of those on my Savage and it's been there 4 a while now .

jrodri4566

i am thinking of replacing the engine for racing, what do you guys think O.S. .30 VG or the O.S. .28XZ Truggy??

lilmegill727

hey guys. as of right now, my LSP doesnt want to start, idk if its cause the cold weather but its in a heated garage. the motor has good pinch on it too. im gonna get a new glowplug and try it out. when this motor is shot, im gonna do a electric conversion! its gonna be a while cause im only 13 its hard to get the money to do this stuff to it. and also having 3 other cars its hard to hop them up all up and maintain them too.

P bomstad

does any one have mud guards on both sides of their truggy? If so what body fits over them both?

jrodri4566

no mud gards here

bronx boy

jrodri4566

bronx boy

jrodri4566
