Had a question about the rear body mount on the MRX4(well, all 1/8th scales)...there are two positions on the body mount arm where the piece coming off the rear upright mounts. How does changing this position change the handling of the car? Also how does changing the position of the centering post change the handle of the car?
Next question is about the bearing position, I believe most call it wheel scrub, I would appreciate if someone would explain the affects of that as I am clueless as to what it does.
Thanks!

The more scrub the more steering front and rear. In the rear it makes the car slide more and in the front it acts similar to more castor.
I got mine at Home Depot.

for $15.00. Try the Parma Clear Double Side Servo tape,
saves a lot of time ( No Drilling for rivets) and certainly
sticks very well.

I don't mean to pull any sales from RB, but if you don't like the grey wheels check out Twister because they both come from the same manufacturer in Italy. You can get flo green and white for $30/set direct from the website.

I use the pop rivets, but also the plastic bolts. I found these at Frys electronics, but Home Depot also carries them. The come in a lot of different sizes, and the nuts do not back off from vibration. They are actually lighter than the pop rivets, and so far after using them for at least three years, have not had one problem with them. If you waste a body, you can reuse the bolts and nuts over and over. You can also find the plastic threaded bolts for the rear floating body mount at both places. I use 1/4x 1 1/4", thread them into the body mount, and snap the excess off with side cutters.

Hello Guys,
I just bought a MRX4-X and I am wondering if the GRP wheels GAJ/GPJ yellow rims/tyres for Kyosho fit the Mugen? I would prefer yellow rims but is the offset etc the same as the GRP white Mugen looking wheels ?
