Thanks again for the setup, the car felt as good as my M05 last night. Really easy to drive. What sort of surface are you running on? I use the ball diff in mine.. I have yet to rebuild it.. It's going on 3 years lol.. That's the beauty of a 21.5, doesn't put much wear on the diff |
Running on carpet.
Is it the TA-05 ball diff you run? |
M05 ball diff

Raman,
Are you running 0-rings in top of shocks bladders? if so how many F/R. Are your springs the long ones or the shorties? Thanks, Coop |
I've decided to join the m-chassis club! I am awaiting a used M-06 to arrive with some alloy upgrades. I don't think there is any races locally but I have plans to just have fun with it, maybe try to turn it into a little drifter. I have a Tekin RS Pro Spec & 13.5t planned for power. Does anyone know if the colt bodies from rcmart fit the chassis? Specifically the old school pickup here http://www.rcmart.com/colt-m2318-min...?cPath=438_874
Looking forward to owning one of these darts! |
Anyone ever mount the rc4wd steel wagon wheels on an m06? I'm wanting to use these with the stock tamiya tires for a blackfoot body m06 build I'm doing.

I've just dug out my old M06 and would like a ballpark set up for the TRF shocks please. Am I correct in thinking the rear shocks should be longer than 56.5mm?

M chassis. I've set the fronts at 56.5mm using an o ring, the rears I took out the o ring so it has some droop. Might struggle to get 5mm ride height on the rear using M chassis springs.

On my car, I'm actually running the TC damper on the rear, because I have the R spec lower suspension mount, which even lowers / lengthens the mount.. So the M chassis damper was coming up short. |
Any idea what length the rear shocks are end to end when built?

Anybody have an opinion on 1 degree vs 2 degree rear hub carriers?
Also, I've noticed the front graphite shock towers (among other parts) is discontinued...any insight to this? I missed the boat with the M06 pro...now I'm piecing one together slowly and $$$$. |
