Overview
The Losi Spindle Carrier Set, 0 and 5 Deg (2) for the LMT 2.0 is an essential upgrade component for owners of Losi 1/8 scale monster trucks in the UK. This composite spindle carrier set delivers the precision engineering and durability that serious RC enthusiasts demand from their vehicles. Whether you're a weekend basher pushing your monster truck to the limits or a competitive racer fine-tuning every aspect of your setup, this replacement spindle carrier set ensures your LMT 2.0 maintains optimal performance and reliability on any terrain.
Losi has designed this spindle carrier set with an updated design that prioritises increased strength and durability. The inclusion of both 0 and 5 degree spindle options means you have the flexibility to adjust your vehicle's geometry to suit different driving conditions, track layouts, and personal preferences. This level of customisation is crucial for RC car UK enthusiasts who want to extract maximum performance from their monster trucks and maintain competitive edge.
Built with composite materials for the ideal balance of weight savings and structural integrity, this spindle carrier set represents genuine OEM quality from a manufacturer recognised worldwide for producing exceptional RC vehicles. If you own an LMT 2.0 monster truck and need to replace worn components or optimise your suspension geometry, this is the authentic part you need.
Key Features
- Dual Spindle Angles — This set includes both 0 and 5 degree spindles, allowing you to adjust your vehicle's caster angle and steering geometry to match different track conditions, terrain types, and driving styles. The flexibility to change spindle angles is essential for fine-tuning handling characteristics and maximising performance.
- Updated Design for Increased Strength — Losi has engineered this spindle carrier with an improved design that delivers greater strength and durability compared to earlier versions. This means better resistance to impacts, harder landings, and the stresses of aggressive driving, reducing the likelihood of premature failure.
- Composite Construction — The composite material construction provides the perfect blend of lightweight design and structural rigidity, ensuring your suspension geometry remains consistent and your handling characteristics remain predictable lap after lap.
- OEM Quality and Fitment — As official Losi replacement parts, these spindle carriers are engineered to exact specifications and fit perfectly on compatible LMT 2.0 models, ensuring seamless integration and reliable performance without modification.
- Pack of Two — You receive a complete set of two spindle carriers, allowing you to replace both front suspension sides or maintain spares for backup during competition or intense practice sessions.
Technical Performance
The spindle carrier is a critical component in your LMT 2.0's suspension geometry, directly influencing how your monster truck handles, steers, and maintains traction across different surfaces. The composite construction used in this spindle carrier set combines excellent strength-to-weight ratio with the durability needed to withstand the extreme forces generated during aggressive cornering, hard landings, and off-road driving. The updated design philosophy focuses on reinforced stress points and improved material distribution, which means these carriers can handle harder impacts and more sustained driving abuse than their predecessors. The inclusion of both 0 and 5 degree options provides tuning flexibility that appeals to UK RC enthusiasts who understand how suspension geometry affects overall vehicle dynamics. The 0 degree spindle offers a more neutral steering characteristic and is ideal for general bashing, while the 5 degree option increases caster angle, which can improve cornering responsiveness and provide better steering feel on technical tracks. These spindle carriers work in harmony with your LMT 2.0's overall suspension system to maintain consistent geometry during aggressive manoeuvres, ensuring your monster truck remains predictable and controllable even at the limits of performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a spindle carrier and why do I need to replace it? — The spindle carrier is the component that connects your suspension arm to your steering knuckle and wheel hub. Over time, through impacts, crashes, and general wear, these parts can crack, bend, or strip. Replacing them with genuine Losi parts ensures your suspension geometry remains accurate and your handling remains consistent. If you notice loose steering, unusual wear patterns on your tyres, or visible cracks in your spindle carrier, replacement is necessary.
- What is the difference between the 0 and 5 degree spindle carriers? — The difference lies in the caster angle they provide. The 0 degree spindle offers a more neutral geometry and is better for general driving and bashing, while the 5 degree spindle increases caster angle, which provides more steering feel and can improve handling on technical courses. Many drivers carry both options to tune their setup for different track layouts.
- Will these spindle carriers fit my LMT 2.0? — Yes, these spindle carriers are designed specifically for Losi 1/8 LMT 2.0 Grave Digger and SonUva Digger models. They are genuine OEM Losi parts and will fit perfectly without modification. Always verify your model number before purchasing to ensure compatibility.
- How often should I replace my spindle carriers? — Spindle carriers typically last through moderate use but can wear faster with aggressive driving, frequent crashes, or continuous hard cornering. Inspect them regularly for cracks, stripping, or damage. Many competitive RC racers replace them proactively during maintenance intervals to ensure peak performance and reliability.
- Are spindle carriers difficult to install? — Installation is straightforward for anyone with basic RC maintenance experience. You'll need standard metric hex tools and possibly a small hammer or press to drive out the old carriers and install the new ones. If you're new to RC maintenance, our team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance or support.
