5,5,5 works awesome with 25 losi shock oil all round.

I would like to try one out but I have some new bodies that I am waiting to cut out and just want to make sure that I dont need to relocate any of the holes.

No relocation is necessary. The only thing that I had to do was grind a little on the front steering post to allow a little room for the exhaust mount. Otherwise it is a direct fit. But my laps have become way more consistant. Much easier to do with this chassis. Turn seems to improve because it stays planted. Definitely worth the money imo. The stock chassis was not bad, but my lap times speak for themselves.

how much for a painted body?

[W.E.D.Jim]

There are quite a few levels of paint, as well as different body choices, etc. So if you would like, send me an email and I can get you a quote.

You can also check out the website and galleries there. It's listed in my signature.

So who oils there pre filter? I have always oiled mine, but I keep hearing about how many don't oil the pre filter to avoid any unwanted build up during long mains. That make sense, and I would think as long as your air filter is oiled well this could be a decent way. I have always thought the more insurance that my mill is being protected the better. I can't remember a time in a main that my tune has really suffered for any other reason then something really drastic happening. Anyways, what are your guys thoughts?

I usually just change it before a long main

[imaxx21]

oil it

[allan42r]

i dont oil the prefilter and i use the 3m vet wrap. it comes in every color but i like the white so i know when it gets dirty. change the wrap and 1 filter will last all day. for under 2 bucks a roll it makes good $

[sirKandal]

Is that the 3M Vetrap Bandaging tape that you use?

Guys,

Just coming to the end of a really nice build. The MBX6 has gone together beautifully and I'm really pleased with my choice of buggy thus far.

Hopefully teamed up with my GO GX7R motor this buggy will really fly , First outing is this weekend (weather permitting).

If you chaps have any advise on better flue/pressure pipe routing, I'm all ears..... or any other changes that need to be made for that matter.

and a couple of pic's .......





the shell is now cut out for the fuel tank opening , with a DE Racing tank pull kit for good measure !

Thanks

Rod

Can sombody help me out? I'm trying to find replacment seals for my diffs in the MBX5R. I need the outer seals and the inners that go under the bevel gears for all three diffs. I've looked online and can't seem to find them even for the MBX6!!

[muaythai]

suprised the switch u using is only the futaba connectors. how do u prevent them from getting loose in a race?
