Bag E, the wheels, battery tray and a few other odds and ends.

This is our last bag for assembly but TLR also includes another Bag, Bag F, with some odds and ends spare parts.

The battery mounting tray for the 22 2.0 was completely redesigned. Make sure you remove this bar that spans across both sides.

When installing the battery posts do so with the body clip holes going fore-and-aft. This will make removing them so much easier.

For our battery needs we turned to a Team Orion XS 4000mAh 90C LiPo (ORI14055). This is the same pack Dakotah Phend used to with the 2013 ROAR National Championship!

The new battery hold-down helps keep the front foam pad in-place.

The rear wheel nuts are the serrated ones that were formerly option parts. Yes, it is a little detail but the 22 2.0 is full of little details that make this such a nice build.

OK, last time. Make sure to use some TLR-Lok on the screws that hold the wheels to the front wheel hexes.

Dynamite now has these killer sensor harnesses that are available in a variety of lengths. I've used these for some time and absolutely swear by them.

I used a Team Orion R10 Pro ESC (ORI65102) for this build. I have used this in my 22, 22T and 22SCT and love the tunability and just how smooth it is.

One of the things I like about the R10 Pro is that you can plug the sensor harness into 2 different locations. I opted to use the rear port as it provides for the cleanest installation.

With the R10 Pro mounted to the rear bulkhead I have some soldering to do. I'll have to trim these wires before soldering the ESC to the motor.

Team Losi Racing includes these hook-and-loop sheets. I plan on using these to attach the body, once painted, to the side guards of the chassis. I really appreciate the fact that I don't need to find and trim hook-and-loop but this very racer-orientated feature is included in the box. Well done guys!

With that we're pretty much done. I still need to lay down some Parma Faskolor paint using our Iwata airbrush on the body, mount up some Pro-Line Racing tires to the included wheels and, as mentioned, solder everything up. Keep an eye on our YouTube channel as we'll be working on our full review in the coming weeks.
