Mugen MBX6 plastic spur gear - any chanches??
 
Hi guys, do you know if is there any plastic central spur gear from any other buggy to use with by MBX6 just convertd in brushless???

Hope you'll help me!! :lol:

You need the whole center diff of an RC8e. I'm happy with the metal spur tho. I can live with the noise.

immarcescibile 12-16-2010 11:59 PM

The noise it's not a problem, but I'd like to test a plastic spur as an alternative chanche...

So RC8e central diff will be a direct fit???

Not sure if it's a direct fit. But I know the Mugen drivers with a plastic spur are using the diff of an RC8. I'm sure you find it more information if you search for it on the forum.

Go to your LHS and hold a Kyosho/Losi/AE gear up to your Mugen diff, see if the holes line up. I've used a Kyosho plastic spur with AE internals inside a Losi diff housing in my Losi 8ight. :D

It will also be important to make sure the inner face height of the gear matches or the diff gear mesh could be off. Too loose can be shimmed, too tight and there could be problems.

teh asso rc8b3/rc8e /rc8t/rc8/sc8..thunder tiger st-1 center diff is a direct fit without any modifikations to the mugen diff

I have a converted 808 and use a kyosho plastic spur gear with success. It holds up perfectly. I've no idea if there is any compatible plastic spur for the MBX6 though..

Morgoth -> see you soon :D

I hope the roads are OK. God I hate snow in Belgium :-(

Get a tekno V4! More bang for the buck and better performance.

Yes the 8e dif is a straight drop in. I have one in my MBX6. Love it!

i cant see why people would drop that much on just a mount... for 50 more you are getting a ton... and you can sell your nitro stuff and that should pay for the tekno kit its self..
