This 26-piece aftermarket body button outer set serves as an RC-scale replacement for LOSI 1/5 5IVE platforms. The components are produced from 7075-T6 aluminium and finished with CNC machining to align with common mounting points, enabling direct replacement of the factory item LOS-3652. The set is intended to improve attachment durability for polycarbonate bodies used on desert-style tracks and during setup work.
Fitting is modular: each outer button matches the standard body post locations used on the 5IVE-TE 3.0 and 5IVE-TG 3.0 chassis. No chassis modification is needed beyond removing the original plastic buttons and installing the alloy parts onto the existing posts and fasteners. Use the correct hex driver sizes and verify thread engagement to avoid over-torque on posts.
In tuning and maintenance workflows these alloy outers help stabilise body mounting under heavy vibration and repeated assembly, providing a consistent datum for ride height and body alignment checks. They are accessories for radio-controlled models and are not suitable for full-scale applications.
Fit this complete set when replacing worn or damaged body buttons or when upgrading to metal fittings for consistent body positioning during setup; always check alignment before final tightening.
