c666187's TLR 22X-T Stadium Truck Build Thread

[c666187]

You may have seen my recent TLR 22X DC Build Thread, if not check it out at https://www.rctalk.com/forum/threads/tlr-22x-dc-build-thread.146680/

I have always loved Losi/TLR so I had to get the 22X-T just as soon as it was available. These are my build photos for my TLR 22X-T Stadium Truck. My photos document the contents of each bag then the final product of that bag. Like every Losi/TLR kit I have ever built, the quality and fitment are second to none.

Bag A - Ball Differential: Same as the 22X DC. The Diff Gear itself has one more tooth I believe, otherwise identical to the all other 22 ball diffs.

Bag B - Turnbuckles: Larger cups/more articulation for the 22X DC/22X-T and three lengths of turnbuckles (2 each of 65mm, 70mm, and 75mm) for the 22X-T (4 x 50mm and 2 x 55mm on 22X).

Bag C - Shocks: 13mm shocks! Same bodies and shafts as the 22X. Oils: 35wt front, 30wt rear (32wt/30wt on 22X). Pistons 1.7 front, 1.8 rear (1.8/1.9 on 22X). Springs Green-4.19lb front, Yellow-2.1lb rear (Red-3.56lb/Orange-1.98lb)

Bag D - Chassis/Front End - Part 1: Steering Rack, Side Rails, and front pivot/tower/arms. I really would prefer Aluminum steering bell cranks, but don't want to cough up $72/ea for them yet...

To be continued......

Bag E - Front End - Part 2: Front hubs and add front shocks and turnbuckles. Completion of the front end. Other than the front spindles and wheel adapters, the rest of the front corners are pretty much identical to the 22X DC Kit.

Who doesn't love a good ol D-Bag

Bag F - Transmission Assembly: No major surprises here.

My kit shows a spacer for the body mount (part TLR-1243) that was just not included in my set. Should not be a problem, but strange that it appears missing?

Clearly an attempt at weight reduction!

You could prob contact TLR and explain, request a replacement without much trouble. Packing issues happen sometimes.

Bag G - Rear Arms/Hubs: Completes the rear end of the car. VHA hubs carryover from the 22 5.0 Elite / 22X DC car.

You sure it's not hiding on one of the sprues? And check any bags you've thrown away.

100% certain it is not in any of the bags so far, I always set them to the side until I am done with the bag - just for this reason. I will double check the "tuning parts bag", but I have also reached out to Horizon to request a replacement.
