Much heavier. I swear I left a pound of dirt on the table.
I had to use an exacto knife to cut the dirt away from the chassis. It was like concrete. Very hard dirt.

Yep, only broke the right front hub carrier.
FRF, how much better is the BCE chassis over the stock 7075 chassis?

I tell you.... that is the ONLY thing that really breaks on these things. It is the weak link in the front end. I would rather have that go than something else though.... fairly cheap and easy to swap.

I can tell you that it is really stiff, and really nice looking. I have only run this LSP with the BCE chassis so I really cannot do before and after. I did purhcase it off of Rocco so I would say his info is spot on.

I ran my CRT with and without the BCE 7075 chassis and their was a huge difference in the way it took rough stuff and hard landings.
Ofcourse, when I did mine i went from a stock 6061 chassis and plastic chassis braces to a BCE/KHZ setup. And immense difference between the two.

If you plan on beating the snot out your lsp i highy HIGHY recommend this block... http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info...ts_id/3458
It has to extra mounting holes that will help save your chassis by keep the diff mount screws from elongating the mounting holes and keep you from breaking the diff case

Yep, already have that on the truck. I also bought the KHZ front arms holder, KHZ front chassis brace, and a few other hop-ups to increase durability. I didn't want to go hog wild till I figured out what broke most often, and what it really needed.
Someone should make a truck out of adamentium. it would be unbreakable.
Sadly, the KHZ part didn't help. I already had a hard landing break the rear bulk head where the arms holder screws into the bulkhead. I ordered several HD bulkheads, and probably would have ordered the KHZ arms holder if it didn't already have it.

Wow. You must bash hard. Even when I bashed the last LSP the only thing I broke were those hub carriers....

If you keep having problems with that front hub carrier, I did some research and found out that Kyosho 7.5 Hub Carriers fit in there just fine. IDK if the kyosho plasic is tougher, but you can find upgrade aluminum ones for the kyosho that will also fit on LSP's.

And I believe that all you need to do is a little dremmeling. They are close I think, but not a perfect fit. I can't help but think that by putting aluminum ones on that something more expensive will break instead.... Something usually has to give.

I wonder if the kyosho plastic ones are stronger than the stock HB. Then you would still have the "weak link" that would give in a hard crash. I know I never broke one and I beat the crap out of that buggy.

Mike, I'm a little lost. You ran Ofna carriers on an LSP or you switched to ofna because of the pivot balls instead of carriers?

Are they the hub carriers for the K2 buggy you are talking about?
Bash hard? Hell yes, there is very little I won't jump my stuff off of. About the only things I won't are 3 story parking garages onto concrete. 
Actually, I won't even jump my buggy 3ft in the air on concrete the chassis slap is bad.
