Building the ultimate monster truggy with Tekno & M2C
M2C bulletproof wide truggy chassis 7075 4mm (prototype shown) for Tekno ET48.3 and MT410
Benefits include:
Comparison to stock chassis
Production chassis shown
M2C MEGA chassis brace
Multiple location and spacious ESC plate, can fit up to a Hobbywing Max6.
Has 4 holes for mounting into Hobbywing ESC's.
Arrma 5mm CVD driveshafts, these are 1mm thicker than Tekno.
Installed
Bulletproofing the rear gearbox
Using a flanged bearing protects the pinion gear, bearings, and gearbox when the center rear driveshaft slams into the parts during extreme chassis flex. I also place shims in between the two bearings to take any type of pressure off the plastic divider.
Boca flanged bearing 5x13x4, SMF695-2RS
HPI shim 5x7x1.45, 103368
Serpent shim 5x7x1.00, 909514
Fioroni aluminum center diff case, this thing is a work of art. It has a very large oil capacity and bulletproof construction. M2C makes a nice one as well but I already had this one on hand.
These are the new shock standoffs (TKR8727) and shock cap bushings (TKR8730) from Tekno. I really like how free the shocks are in movement with these and they'll reduce wear on the cap.
M2C emulsion zero rebound shock caps & o-ring pistons, the truggy handles really great with these and the emulsion build is super easy.
Yeah Racing aluminum case fan on a Castle MMX fan shroud, these don't break like all plastic case fans do.
Kevlar braid for belting the tires.
I dremel a channel down the middle of the tire so it has maximum coverage.
3 chassis braces for maximum durability, all made by M2C.
Power hungry setup, Poseidon 1527 (43x106mm) & Hobbywing Max6.
Light weight setup, Castle 1515 & Castle MMX.
Proline thumbwasher kit installed on the body posts.
Leadfinger Racing Strife NT48.3 body
These are a few of the stock parts on the truck for those unfamiliar with the brand.
CNC machined hardened steel ring gear
CNC machined 7075 hinge pin braces
CNC machined 7075 dual clamping motor mount
16mm bore hard anodized shocks
14mm thick composite suspension arms
CNC machined 7075 shock towers, 6.6mm thick
Benefits include:
- Waaaaaay less chassis flex
- Waaaaaay more room for mounting different electronics
- Multiple location ESC plate

this is awesome. I love how minimilistic these trucks are.
is there room for a 1717 can on there? Preferably with something like 50/15 gearing if tekno even makes a 50t spur.

Awesome looking truck! Looking to get an MT410 I think. Was debating Arrma but the MT410 just looks so good.
A bit worried about the stock driveshafts but I'll see how they last.
Thanks for showing us this truck, it's a masterpiece. I bet it moves pretty good too.
