Frequently Asked Questions
- What are chassis side plates and why do I need them? — Chassis side plates are structural components that form part of your RC truck's main frame, providing lateral support and protecting the frame from damage during impacts and aggressive driving. They maintain frame rigidity and alignment, which directly affects how your truck handles and performs. Eventually, side plates can crack, bend or wear, especially if you bash hard or race competitively, making replacement parts essential for continued reliable operation.
- Will these fit my LMT truck? — Yes, these are genuine Losi parts specifically designed for the LMT (Losi Monster Truck) platform. They are manufactured to OEM specifications and will fit perfectly without any modifications or compatibility issues. If you own an LMT, you can install these with confidence that they will integrate seamlessly with your existing setup.
- Are these genuine Losi parts? — Absolutely. These are authentic OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts produced by Losi. When you purchase genuine factory parts from an authorised retailer like RC Model Shop, you're getting components manufactured to the exact same standards and specifications as the original parts that came with your truck.
- What makes genuine OEM parts better than aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Losi parts are engineered and tested specifically for the LMT platform, guaranteeing perfect fitment, performance and reliability. They maintain your truck's warranty protection and ensure that replacement components perform identically to factory originals. Aftermarket parts may have fitment issues, different tolerances, or inferior materials, potentially affecting your truck's handling and longevity.
- How do I know if I need new chassis side plates? — Inspect your side plates regularly for cracks, bending, or damage from impacts. If you notice handling changes, frame misalignment, or visible damage to the side plates, replacement is recommended. If you actively race or bash your truck regularly, having spare side plates on hand is simply good maintenance practice.
- Can I use these parts on other Losi models? — These parts are specifically designed for the LMT platform and are not compatible with other Losi models. Always ensure you're ordering parts that match your exact truck model to avoid fitment issues.
