Losi Ten-T Conversion

[Chadworkz]

I have quite a few Ofna solid-drive units as well as a few Ofna Monster Pirate solid-drive slipper-clutches and tons of gears modified to fit them, from 48P, 32P (0.8m) to Mod1, in plastic, Delrin, and steel. I should be able to make something work!

Still, it would be nice is there was an off-the-shelf option. Using some custom-made parts is nice, but some (like driveline components) can be a PITA to replace/remake.

How is the 500K oil in the centre Diff working out for those who have made the change? What can I expect? Did it change the handling characteristics a whole lot, braking? Does it send the truck on its spoiler too easily? My front tires turn into pizza cutters immediately with any hard acceleration and would like some insight before I make the change. Brian, hows the 120K oil making out?

[BrianG]

As a basher and "bashing racer" (playing around at the track, but not racing) I generally love thicker oil to reduce or eliminate ballooning and get more power to the ground. 120k does still unload the front, but not nearly as bad as whatever the vehicle came with. I find launches to be quicker, and have not noticed any difference in handling. Then again, my method of cornering is more like powersliding/drifting.

Just use a cen or losi diff locker...

So does that mean the diff itself is standard 1/8 scale, since those are standard 1/8 scale diff-lockers?

Mike stop editing my posts!!!! i might be stupid, but i still feel like i wasted my money... and i dont need help...

I own this site - I will edit as i see fit. :) Monster Mike

Wow! I am reading your post but I don't understand why you are so upset?

-it has kost me 230$ ... I am sure it cost you that much due to shipping, taxes, duty etc...

-and you just get some screws... did you not receive the battery tray, strap, diff mount, spur and pinion gear? If not you might have to talk to your mail man as these are all included in the kit (shrink wrapped btw)

-and I dont have a clue where to put them... I am sure many here are willing to assist.

-and some places misses screws and junk... this was an issue that only some of us were having and it was mentioned a few pages back and if I recall Mike was addressing it. No junk was included with my kit.

-i wasted my money... sounds like buyers remorse, sorry, cant help you with that.

i did get the things, but when i say "just got some screws" i mean you just get the things and have to guess where hey need to be mounted.
But as i said: I have mounted it now and still feels like i wasted some money but F*** it:)

You were the guy who absolutely couldn't wait to get it.

Maybe you should have waited and found out more about it before you decided to buy it so you would know what to expect out of it, and how much it was going to cost with the duties/taxes.

You have no excuse to be disappointed except your own impatience.

No couldnt wait, and i knew i had to pay taxes...
but im disappointed and all of you might be very happy... im not, and thats how i feel.. i did expect that it was good since it took about 2 months to make!

Save the screws you pulled off the ten-t when you removed the nitro components....the 2biggest screws go into the rcm center diff mount...the 2 skinny long ones go into the top plate of the center diff....and the rest go into securing the battery tray...and the center diff spacer....I know it doesn't come with intructions but the putting the kit together is pretty easy....if your unsure just place the screws that came in the kit into the bottom of the tray and motor mount/top plate before you attach it toyour truck jut to see which screws go where...but don't force any screws in....BC you might strip the holes....oh yeah, and the screws that's in the small black plastic cylindrical shaped piece goes into the motor and it makes adjust gear mesh easier so that now all you have to do is loosen one screw to adj gear mesh....hope this helps....and no, you did not waste your money...mike make top notch stuff...and if something is wrong he will be new than happy to fix it for ya ;)

hootie thanks:D i have mounted it, and i have had other stuff from mike... that was great... i was /am disappointed with this product.. :(

[BrianG]

Well, provide pics of any parts you are having trouble mounting and we'll tell you where it goes. I imagine it's very close to the kit I got (maybe even some improvements), and it looks and works well.

[nitrostarter]

I don't understand. You were happy with all of Mike's other products. I'm quite sure this kit is nothing from the ordinary from Mike, just a little updated.
