I want to get some Blue ball studs for my XXXS (cos i like blue), however the only ones i can find are the RPM Long Losi ball studs.
Would these long ones be suitable or do i need short ball studs like the ones in the kit ?
Kev
P.S. I will be using the lunsford titanium turnbuckles with them

go to http://www.teamlosi.com/partlist/index.htm and then put 'rod end' in the "Search by description:" box, this should bring up all the ball cups (and some other stuff)
They are not shown there but I am pretty sure they make them though, I got sent some red ones by mistake once.
I also have white ones on my cars (xxx-s included)
sory I can't help anymore than that! :-[
PS - best to use Losi cups on the Losi balls, for one thing, you need the Losi balls to be able to get the same setup as other people (due to the lenght of the neck of the ball) and the best ball cups to fit them are losi ones.

Losi make them in blue and red and they are a mix of short and long.

I only just bought a set of blues ones myself !!
you get 8 long and 2 short ball joints in a pack. Cant remember part number or price. Call your local Losi supplier and ask them.

The part number for the Losi blue rod ends is A6013 and as Tim and Matt said you get some long and some short so you would have to cut some to the correct length so they fit.

I am not sure cutting the long ones would give the same effect. I am not sure the thread goes as close to the ball as it does in the short ones.

I've looked into the Losi pack of ball studs and as previously stated you get 8 long (for turnbuckles) and 2 short (for servo link), however, i still don't know what to do.
A guy at my club has got them on his XXXS G+ i think so i'll just have a llok at his set up when i next see him

I am not 100% sure this is the case, I will check on mine tonight and let you know
