Status: offline 		The Losi XXl has been one of the funnest nitro trcuks I have ever had. The 454 engine is a beautiful running mill. Starts up every time and the power is really totally unreal. I have had to replace the output gear in it after 3 tanks. No problem take it out put a one in and off I'm running. I have a lot of Rc's but this XXL is truly addicting !

Status: offline 		I have to say that I am not impressed with the after shock 2 speed
I ran my original one with the bearing in the middle for 4 years before it quit do to the teeth going sharp.
This new 2 speed set from an aftershock has given my nothing but a pain in the you know what!
Other then that the truck has been loads of fun

Status: offline 		My LST2 2-speed - the SECOND one after replacing the first which was not working after like 8 tanks, is now acting up too.. My much much older LST2 basher has been problem-free.. Somnehow these new 2-speeds are garbage..

Status: offline 		Weirdness.. Since when do people blow Losi diffs?? I wonder if there are just some quality lapses with the newer Losis.. Or I don't know, maybe the longer chassis flexes more, putting some weird strain on the diffs?? Diffs are one thing I feel I never have to worry about with my LST2's (and Muggy that I had..) I have three new diffs that've been sitting around in a bag forever - my LST2 - which I bought three years ago and broke in 2 1/2 years ago, has perfect diffs still.. Have only broken a pin.. Are you guys threadlocking the cases? When they "blow", how do they blow?

Status: offline 		First diff I had the gears strip out. Second and Third diff I had the pin break. I got a riot act from people on here telling me I was the problem. Reason I bought it was it's durability, but when I was have trouble I was told it was the operator's fault. There was a hand full of us Losi XXL owners that all experienced the same defects. But we were still told that we were too hard on our trucks.
I still wouldn't trade it for anything. I just finished tearing my truck down and replacing parts. Cleaned it completely and it looks great. Just cycled the battery and might take it out this weekend.

Status: offline 		If people are doing a lot of jumping though, and gassing it while landing, that would lead to blown diffs in any RC...
