I got my MP9e rollin' today and dang this thing is silky smooth
Way nicer then my MBX6 and Losi 2.0

So....
my question. What other bodies fit the MP9e? I like too have a practice shell and race shell, but every where seems to be on back order.

that's the one from the kit, and in backorder.... try the rc8e body from associated, I heard they fit, the nitro bulldog AE RC8 version from proline fits my MP9 nitro.

So would any of the rc8e bodies fit? Do they have more or the same amount of clearance then the MP9e? My stock lid is right on my batteries.

Hey Guys,

What center diff wt oil are you running? I am currntly running 7000 wt but I still get the front wheels ballooning. I run on blue groove, clay, and dirt from inside to outside tracks and 7000 seems the best but I am temped to go to 10000 wt and just curious if what everyone else is running.

Thanks in advanced.

5 - 7 - 3 is what I currently run. I was thinking of 5 - 10 - 3 Or 7 - 7 - 3.

What tracks do you run on and with the 12 up front what have you noticed that you like over running 5 or 7 upfront?

Josh, I'm running 5k-10k-3k Going to look at trying 7k in the front soon. I really liked the way the car felt going from 5k to 10k in the center diff.

Default MP9E Locators

Assembled my 9E last week, and had a lot of trouble inserting the locator pills, the orange plastic inserts that set suspension changes. They were all too big and had to be Dremel sanded to fit. Not what you'd expect for that kind of money. Anyone had the same problem?

never heard that, I almost can't believe it. It is a tight fit, but they fit. Any pictures before I say that it's impossible?
