Step 1. Inspect the inside of the tires [front (144), rear (145)] for any excess material. If present, trim excess rubber to ensure
ing of the tires on the wheels [front (147), rear (148)].
*NOTE: Do not set tires on furniture as they may leave permanent stains.
Step 2. Insert foam tire liners (146) into the front tires (144). Pull the front tires (144) over the front wheels (147) so that the angled ribs are on the
solid side of the wheel (outside). Squeeze the tires (144) to properly seat it in the grooves of the wheels (147).
Step 3. Insert foam tire liners (146) into the rear tires (145). Pull the rear tires (145) over the rear wheel (148) and squeeze the tire (145) to properly
seat it in the grooves of the wheels (148). Make certain that the foam liners (146) are not pinched between the tires (145) and the wheels (148).
Step 4. The tires (144), (145) should now be glued to the wheels (147), (148). This can be done by using a fast-curing superglue or cyanoacrylate
glue available at your hobby shop. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's warnings on the bottle.
Tip: Team Losi Tread Lock (A-7880) is the best glue available for gluing R/C car tires. This glue was formulated and produced especially
for this pupose.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Allow the glue to dry thoroughly before continuing.
Step 5. Press a 3/16" x 3/8" bearing (114) into the inside of both front wheels (147). Slide the front wheels (147) over the front axles (39) so the
solid side of the wheel faces the outside. Slide an axle bearing spacer (115) over the front axle (39) next to the inside bearing,(114) so that the
spacer is positioned in the center of the wheel (147). Press the remaining 3/16" x 3/8" bearings (114) into the outside of both front wheels (147).
*NOTE: If the 3/16" x 3/8" bearings only have one Teflon
wheel.
Step 6. Place a 3/16" x .015 shim (149) over each of the front axles (39), next to the outer bearing (114). Secure the front wheels (147) by threading
a 10-32 locknut (150) onto the front axles (39) and tightening with the included Team Losi wheel wrench.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Do not overtighten the front wheel nuts. The front tires should rotate freely.
Step 7. Mount the rear wheels (148) to the rear axles (109) by lining up the pins (117) in the rear axles with the grooves in the rear wheels (148)
and pushing the wheels (148) all the way onto the axles (109).
Step 10. Secure the rear wheels (148) by attaching 10-32 locknuts (150) to the rear axles (109) and tightening.
