Losi 8ight &
8ight-T Stuff
Soon after the Losi 8ight was
released, Qoncepts went to work designing innovative parts to make your 8ight even more
unique an more dangerous to the competition. As with our Revo products,
our Losi 8ight products will not be for bling, but a lot of attention will be
paid to aesthetics.
New stock are a bit more stylish than shown and a bit lighter.
After this mod, you can remove
the top plate, top two mount halves, brake cams, brake calipers, filter mount
all as single assembly. A must-have for racers.
* Aluminum 6061-T6 components
* Access the center diff in no time
* Caliper screws are still
firmly adjustable
Notes: (1)caliper plate springs (ink pin springs) are not included. (2/0 Nylon
washers for caliper (not shown) are included. (3) Set screws have been
introduced to the kit for extra security to hold the brake screws. In
order to use them, the rear brake screws have to be shortened a little.
This modification is all about
getting you out of the pits quickly.
* By making the mount with 4 parts, you can remove the engine and put it back
without having to re-adjust mesh.
* The components are milled to increase surface area to improve engine
cooling.
*
The base of each side is flared and long to increase contact with the chassis
for even more engine cooling and more bracing for rear up flexing of the
chassis. Even with the longer and wider base, the 6061-T6 billet aluminum
components were designed to be light weight, weighing in a 1.1 oz. Stock
weight is 1.0 oz.
* Included screws are treated with Vibra-tite, a reuseable thread locking agent
that makes screws resistant to vibration.
* With the use of flathead (countersink) screws, the top pieces lock into
orientation. Other, less thought-out systems using standard head screws
leave space around the screw. This means the upper and lower pieces can
shift due to the difference in diameters of the thru holes and the screw's major
diameter.
* Why 4 pieces and not 3? First, there is no structural gain in the very
thin strip of aluminum than can go across the front. We didn't connect the back
because soon, there will be several companies making aftermarket rear braces.
We don't want to limit your choices.
This is a complete drop-in kit.
No additional modifications necessary.
No more need for a monster stack
of shim and weird creative ways to hold the bell on! Shown is our mounting
system with a Kysosho 7.5 flywheel and OFNA clutchbell.
*
Allows you to switch from the Losi 4-shoe clutch system to a typical buggy
clutch setup, opening your options for clutchbells and clutch systems.
Shown here a Kyosho 7.5 3-shoe flywheel and nut with a OFNA clutchbell.
*
Shims may or or may not be needed. Only a typical amount is needed for
most applications.
*
With a typical socket head cap screw holding the clutchbell on, it does not
touch the fuel tank. A button head screw will maximize the distance from
the fuel tank.

without having to re-adjust mesh.
