[davejg1956]

Hey everybody, new to the forum. New to 1/5 scale and purchased the 5ive T 2.0 and have been doing some upgrades. Just recently got the TLR 252003 axle boots and have tried so many ways to put them on and nothing LOL. Can someone give me a clue? SMH

Right..... so the ring is not fitting
I just did flm 5t dog bones on my losi 5b.....couldn't use the flm pins in the cvd coz they where too long used my old ones. Looks like your rings are not going all the way.....am I right

Can't see how that's gunna work as the area that ring sits goes into the inner bearing in the knuckle

They work for 5b and not 5t 2.0

They do have different part numbers. You need to buy the boot version.
