Legacy DBXL-E 2.0

[Legacy]

I'll keep this brief....

How do I adjust the brakes on the DBXL-E? They're too weak stock.

I need replacement beadlock screws, does anyone have a link?

Thanks!

2 grub screws on break/throttle linkage directly across from center diff. Loosen grub screws on collars, move collars towards rear end, tighten grubs again. A little goes a long way. As for harware, buy it at a local hardware shop and save some money. Rc specific kits are a ripoff, they're not special screws.

DBXL/MTXL are same as a fivet

So I have a stock dbxl-e so the brakes are not mechanical. Any way to make them stronger without converting to mechanical brakes? I plan on doing it eventually but I haven't ordered the parts yet.

Also I went to the hw store and they didn't have an exact match. If anyone knows the specs I would very greatly appreciate it. Mainly the thread pitch.

You can pick up a thread pitch gauge at harbor freight.

Or grab a set of calipers and hop online

Thanks, I think I saw some like that at my local hw store. The main difference is that the ddm and hw store have pointed tips and the Losi screws do not.

Update.... I figured out how to adjust the brakes, I changed them from 50% to 100% let's see what happens tomorrow.

I would imagine it should do a flip.

Brakes are much better now, what they should have been from the beginning. They don't lock up and it doesn't flip...lol

Cut the tip off

Cut the tip off

I'll try that
Sooo this happened today....

Hit something really hard, going really fast....lol


Can someone tell me what the correct part number for the rear camber arm is??? The manual sucks....smh

 

[DougStar]

Take it off and do what @mark35 suggested ??? it straight ?????

 

[Legacy]

That worked like a charm! ????✌?

This is the part number incase it happens again, the alloy will be weaker now its been bent

Soooo... This happened today.... Got a lil too rowdy I guess. My question is, are there any other tires I can buy that will fit on the stock wheels and tubes? I thought I read somewhere that there aren't any other options but I figured I'd ask. Thanks guys!!

I made a thread for the DBXL tires a while back and I am using the Rovans on mine with the stock wheels then I swapped wheels.

That would be great to check out I'll search for it now.

Any baja 5t fronts will mount right up, as well as losi 5ive tires.

I've read through your thread @siblues thanks for pointing me there.
