So...got the SH backplate and pull rope. It does work.....although how well is yet to be seen. Everything bolts up and works freely with no binding. Based on the measurements, if I do have any air leaks, I’m wondering if a little high temp gasket maker might be needed around the...
i was probably placing my order when you were typing. Lol. I ordered the sh backplate and pull start from amain. After doing some research i totally agree. If it doesn’t work I’m out $23 bucks. If it does then we have a solution for all the LRP guys looking for the same stuff. Shipping...
Well upon further investigation those losi parts are all unavailable and or discontinued on every site I’ve tried.
I guess everything I’ve been hearing about the hobby dying off has some truth to it.
You are correct olds97. Wish I could find those on a shelf somewhere lol. Amain does have the pull rope but that backplate is pretty elusive. I’m gonna try the Losi parts. I’ll post up if they work because everywhere I look for the lrp stuff I find someone else looking for the same thing...
NEED LRP PULL START ASSEMBLY!!!!
I’m currently doing a savage xl build with a .32x. The problem is that I ordered the bumpstart engine because the pull start was out of stock. I’m hoping find someone that has converted to bump start that would be willing to barter or sell the parts needed...
Have a question regarding spur gear/clutch bell combinations. I have a 16t/52t and it definitely isn’t going to work. Can anyone tell me if a
15t/44t will fit. Trying to get right without buying a ton of different combinations

FLM:
Ext lcg chassis
Control arms
Driveshafts
Servo plate
Motor plate...
I actually bought mine from someone on savage central after a friend in london found it for me. got it for 125 but Fast Lane Machine or FLM sells it new and I believe they have more than one version to choose from. The version I have is the forward tranny conversion chassis.
Not silly quetions at all.....What I did was tightly wrap each of the two grooves twice and tied a small tight knot and just as you suspect....glue the line directly to the outside of the tire, I use aka glue and it seems to do better than ca. I've got probably 30 runs on mine with only minor...
I've done it with great success on phaltlines. Not sure if it would hold together on badlands though.
here's a link to some pics of how i did mine
