This 26-piece aftermarket body button outer set is intended as a replacement for LOSI 1/5 5IVE platforms. Parts are machined from 7075-T6 aluminium and finished with CNC work to align with common mounting locations, permitting direct replacement of factory item LOS-3652. The set emphasises durable attachment points for polycarbonate bodies used on desert-style surfaces and during setup tasks.
Installation is straightforward: each outer button aligns with the standard body post positions on the 5IVE-TE 3.0 and 5IVE-TG 3.0 chassis. No modifications to the vehicle structure are required beyond removing the original plastic buttons and fitting the alloy pieces to the existing posts and fasteners. Use appropriate hex drivers and verify thread engagement to avoid over-torque on the chassis posts.
In tuning and maintenance these alloy outers help stabilise body mounting under vibration and repeated assembly, delivering a consistent reference for ride-height and body alignment checks. They are sold as accessories for radio-controlled models and are not intended for full-scale applications.
Use this full set to replace worn body buttons or upgrade to metal fittings for repeatable body placement during setup; confirm alignment before final tightening.
