mugen mbx6t vs mbx5t
#16
MBX5T's are as tough as nails !
#17
the losi 10t is junk ...save yer cash...i bought one right when they came out (i never touched it after break in)
the d8t is a pretty sick truck for the money....
i also own the mbx5t and its by far the funnest best handling truck i own....i actually installed an old o.s. .21 vg i had sitting forever yesterday and WOW...even the little 2 horse motor gets it moving really well...
a good question (which ive been wanting to ask ) is what parts are compatable between the mbx5t and the 6t

diffs, rear center driveshaft, wing mount a some small plastic spacers etc.

i wonder why people dont just run the 5t diffs in the 6t then...if thats one of the weak links in the 6t

Close but nope they are different too. the center diff is located a little more forward in the mbx6t so the front shaft is a hair too short and the rear is quite a bit too long. The 6t is around 10mm longer than the 5t which throws everything of from the get go. I am running BCE chassis on my 5t's and even with the extra length of the BCE the 6t shafts still dont work. Wish they did but no cigar.

if so then show me part number for front center for MBX6-T
manual says E0202 same as for MBX5-T
rear are e0247 for 6t and e0212 for 5t so they are different of course with 6T being 10m longer

Your right they do share the same part number(which would indicate they are the same). But I am just saying unless the mugen guy at the races handed me the wrong dog bone(possibility) they are different lengths. I compared them side by side on all of the bones to see if he had anything I could use on my 5t.

I love my 6T, its very, very, durable, I am not aware of any diff issues, and havent broken a single arm yet on my 6T, nor have any of our Team Drivers

No diff issue on the 6t.You just need to check them after break-in and add a shim if needed.I didn't do this and ate a diff.No problems since though.
