Hex size?
What are the hex sizes for the LST2... I'm probably gonna pick up a hex set for Christmas... need to know if I need to get metric or US... (or both) I'd rather only get one or the other...

RE: Hex size?
sorry.... I was not very clear... I meant for the screws. 
I want to get a new tool set for my R/C's... hex drivers... not the ones to take off the wheels... the ones to take out the screws.

The sizes required for the LST/LST2 are: allen wrenches =.050”, 1/16”, 5/64”, 3/32”, 2.5mm and a 8mm nut driver for wheel nuts on the LST and glow plugs on both LST/LST2. The LST2 manual also states that you will need a 1.5mm wrench.

RE: Hex size?
So, it would be best if I got the US Standard... I only want to buy one of the sets because that's all I have in my budget (getting 2 other things... a peak charger and a servo for my Mini)

RE: Hex size?
the really annoying thing about losi's is that they can't use just one measurement system, the engine uses metric (made by dynamite) and most of the rest of the truck uses imperial, which really is very initiating, if you want to work on the whole truck you need both metric and imperial hex sets.
the 1.5mm wrench is for adjusting the carb linkage (rotating it to get the right angle)
