Losi 8 buggy to truggy

[Juttie]

Im in the process of getting another 8ight and was just wondering what I needed to turn my old 8ight into a truggy.

[barnyard]

Chassis, arms f+r, driveshafts f r & centre, diff crown wheel & pinions f+r, shock towers f+r, shocks (rear only as buggy rear become truck front), turnbuckles, fuel tank, body posts, shell, wheel + tires. This is only the stuff I can think of so there is likely to be some things I have missed off.

With the length of the shopping list it would be almost as cheep to buy a complete truck.

thought chassis was the same??

[barnyard]

Nope the truck chassis is about 50mm longer, which also results in the center front & rear driveshaft, fuel tank and a couple of other bits also needing to be longer.

ok thanks think I will scrap that idea
