Hi there everyone, I am looking to switch to Truggy class next year and to be honest was looking at Losi and Mugen (swear words in here?), this was mainly due to local parts availablity (in the case of Mugen).
And secondly due to these 2 brands are all that races at my local track, in a case recently I missed a race due to a starter box failure, if I had a Losi or Mugen I could have chucked it onto another starter.

But the more I think about it the more I would prefer XRay.
I just love the quality in it, I can only use my buggy as an example, but it does not break, nor does it shake around like an old mole on the starter box like the Losi's do.

So guys to help preventing me from becoming a sheep in the pack, I wonder if any of the many XB8 parts I have can be used in the XT8?

Ie, are the front C hubs and the front and rear hubs the same (I have XRay alu ones)
Are shockies or shockie parts the same (I have many sets and many spare parts)
Are the springs the same?
Are sway bars the same?
Are diffs and cases the same (or parts off?)
Are the centre diff, tower, brakes the same?
Are the inner hinge pin carriers different (I have a range of offsets)
Are the little plastic pin offset pivots different?

I realise things like shock towers, control arms, drive shafts, fuel tanks, body mounts and chassis are different, but is there any other parts different?

By the way, have I mentioned I love the quality of XRay.
I think I am too much of a perfectionist to live with a "loose" Losi

And I now have a second starter box :)

Ie, are the front C hubs and the front and rear hubs the same (I have XRay alu ones) yes.

Are shockies or shockie parts the same (I have many sets and many spare parts) 09 spec went with big bores so some differences
Are the springs the same? again big bore although 08 xt8 ran same springs
Are sway bars the same? yes
Are diffs and cases the same (or parts off?) cases & internals the same, gear is 43t, front outdrives where longer but similar to ec.
Are the centre diff, tower, brakes the same? yes except composite tower is taller o allow for 48t spur.
Are the inner hinge pin carriers different (I have a range of offsets) same as tq
Are the little plastic pin offset pivots different? same as tq
Many things where the same just the odd composite part due to size increase.

Also you can check the that lists all spare parts for XRAY XB8 and XT8 cars, to see which parts fit the various versions of the cars.

Hi there

So it's possible to convert a XB808'10 Buggy kit with XT8 parts (suspension arms, CVD's,...) to a "XB808-Truggy-conversion"?
(Like one)

Which parts would be necessary?

Would be used for a BL-Conversion. So I'd have a Buggy AND a Truggy with one Chassis and the Truggy-Version would be little lighter than the XT8...
