The 22 5.0 is the next evolution of the 22™ 2wd buggy platform. Optimizing the 22 5.0 specifically for dirt and clay tracks, we've been able to narrow the setup window and maximize performance. The 22 4.0 nailed the rear end, maximizing adjustment and rear grip for all surfaces, but the Team Losi Racing® development team knew the 22 5.0 could still be improved. Turning focus to the front suspension, we found a way to make the 22 5.0 significantly easier to drive while still giving the car more mid-corning steering. The 22 5.0 takes the 22 Platform to the next level, and will take to you to the top of the podium!
The biggest improvement with the TLR 22 5.0 comes from the steering geometry. Increasing the length of the steering bell cranks and spindle arms, along with changes to the Ackermann angle give the 22 5.0 a significantly smoother steering feel, especially off-center and high speed, while increasing low-speed steering for tighter tracks and 180's.
The slipper is optimized with all new slipper plates, slipper pads, spring, spur gears, and an all-new top shaft which uses a sturdy M4 lock nut. New slipper pads allow for spur gears sized 69T to 84T, this provides a more linear slip through the throttle application. Thicker slipper plates keep consistent pressure across the surface of the pads.
The Gen3 shocks have been completely revamped and improved. The main improvement comes from changing to a 3.0mm shock shaft diameter. Screw mounted pistons, new molded shock caps, thinner shock collar give 3mm more spring adjustment, locking eyelets and spring cups, -3mm, 0mm and 4mm spring cups, new shock end balls, standard and +2mm length eyelets.
The 22 5.0 includes a healthy list of included option parts: Aluminum Ball Stud Washers throughout, Aluminum Clamping Hexes, Aluminum Front Axles, Aluminum Rear Camber Block, Carbide Diff Balls, Full Machined Shock Internals, TLR Low-Frequency Springs, Adjustable Rear Toe Plate, and Anti-Squat Block.
Changing from the 2.5mm thick chassis plate, the 22 5.0 has been improved with a 2.0mm thick chassis<
