@Bob Veitch Oh no this is the gasoline RTR version not the nitro. They released this and the LST gasoline version same year. Folks had issues with the engine and both were discontinued. Check out the link if you get a chance. www.horizonhobby.com/product/1-8-8ight-t-4wd-gas-truggy-rtr-with-avc-technology/LOS04001.html?gclid=Cj0KCQjwtMCKBhDAARIsAG-2Eu-toV5XT-HbvjY97Uwvzev10AIH23eTKzTigEmLEEwy9drw4cyyhT0aAulfEALw_wcB

hello I made this transformation with the losa 0912 kit on the losi 8ight 4.0 but once mounted the body of the outbreak does not mount because it touches the 4S hard case battery ..... which bodywork is good ?????

@powerROBY Unfortunately I do not own a 8ight but surprised if the stock electric body will not fit with a 4S pack. Must be a pretty large pack. I know the Arrma Typhon body may have that extra clearance but not sure if it would fit exactly on this chassis.

Does it have reverse or do you have to get the electric Center diff to make it have reverse or is it just a direct fit you can use the nitro differential thank you

Garett Bodel Reverse is set from the ESC. Mine has reverse. This conversion kit from Losi is a direct fit. No diffs need to be swapped out when converting to electric.

You do have to spin the nitro differential around 180°. In order for the motor mount and stuff to fit

And you will have to shim it up about a 16th of an inch if you use your nitro's differential gear it is larger than what comes with the kit but you cannot disassemble this differential

Red Irish Let me know what you are having an issue with. Are you using the spur gear that came with the gasoline setup? If you use the center diff lift on the second link it will fit with no issues. If you are using the spur gear that came with the kit that should work as well but I wanted to use the metal spur gear.

Not very good in detail of how to do this transfer from anyone. Trying to use stock differential and it's telling me to spin it around $180° now from where the gas engine was why is this?
@ReadySetRC
@ReadySetRC 3 жыл бұрын
@Ed Haspadura Yeah this was not a popular model so not too many videos on the truck. You can use the stock diff and spur but you need to lift the center diff mount. The guy I bought mine from is no longer doing them. It was 4 years ago. But you need to find a way to prop the mount up then you can use the metal spur. If you are on IG I can send you a better pic of mine.

Im having trouble finding the diff spacers for the center. Is this a must have for the conversion to work?
@ReadySetRC
@ReadySetRC 4 жыл бұрын
@Jeremy Breeden That is correct, conversion kit and the diff spacer. This was some time ago but I feel the diff spacer was if you want to keep the metal spur than the plastic one that comes in the conversion kit. For me the metal was a must. That spacer was limited when I did this conversion too.
