you can get Muggy shafts for your shocks and convert them to sit lower if you wanted. The Muggy handles great though, but is really a different truck. It's more of a track truck I think. You can buy chassis reinforcement braces for it to strengthen it up. I've never really torq'd a Losi chassis ever though. I'm getting ready to convert an LST2. I'm sticking with my Nitro XXL for now. It's too much fun , but will be one of the few Nitro's I have left. I'll be running my LST2 on a NEU 1515 2.5d and 6s! I've got Ti gears for the tranny too, and I'm running FOC (on the LST2). My XXL is stock, except I added a wing.

I just finished up winterizing it, and it'll be put away for several months. When I get the motor mounted this weekend, I'll snap some pix.

I just wish I knew for sure what kind of aftermarket bodies fit the XXL. I've heard the Losi Racer fits, which I have unpainted. I think at 72 Chevy C10 would look killer on the XXL. I have the Blue XXL body, and a Red XXL body, but they are really thin. Plus, they don't make roll cages for the XXL just yet, which is why I'm converting the LST2 first and buying a New Era nitro mount that will get modified to fit an E Conversion.

Good luck!
