Hi
Any chance of seeing it without the body? Also did you encounter any problems using the extended chassis? I'm getting one of these trucks in a few months, and I am thinking of doing extended chassis mod. |

I'm painting up a Baja Bug body (I have several different bodies) and would have had to cut the engine detail portion of the body out using the stock rear bumper/support. The T-Bone bumpers are much flatter across bottom, I'm fairly confident this will fit with the full, intact body. Anybody with pictures of their MT with the new rear bumper? Jay |
My Build and recommendations
Hey guys, I've been following (slowly) along with the build thread and wanna give a big THANKS to all that give tips on builds.
My setup.. Monster Truggy. -MT410 chassis for now..soon M2C truggy chassis. -3.8 MX BAdlands and truggy size wheels - Tekin Gen 3 RX8 and 2000kv truggy motor -SMC 7200 4s lipo - Truggy Frt. & rear shock towers...I highly recommend this change up. Better stance (wider) at the camber links, beef'r than stock by far! -M2C Diff cups F,C,R...20k,20k,10k -Savox 1270 servo - All chassis supports -Aluminum shock caps, spring nut setup emulsion only. -Low pro truggy wing So much fun to drive and race! |

Any pics? this is my kind of truck
My motor will be here this weekend. I had the Gen1 2000kv got it swapped out to the Gen3 2000kv after a issue arose with the Gen1 motor. I also run the Tekno Truggy body mod'ed (shortened) for the MT410 chassis. Basic flat white color with sicker on her. Thanks |
Here are pics

I can't get the rear shock shock length to be 135mm when using the manual's setup. It's noot even near the 135mm. Any idea?
Also, is there any body that fits and goes low enough to reach the mudguards? I tried 2 of the ones that are supposedly compatible and they don't really fit or are clearly now high (low...) enough. |
nm.

What did you change to the stock shock setup (or other things like hub extensions or ...) to not damage the shocks on hard landings and avoid them becoming fully compressed before the chassis absorbs the hit? |

I see you are running 0 offset giant tires. I'm trying the same but can't get chassis slap befor the shocks bottom out, which I'm sure is a recipe for disaster.

it's not my video, it's "ABC kid" . he will reply to you in the comments of his video if you post you Q there.

Should have bought an Outcast. |

For future reference: there's no chassis slap possible with anything bigger than the Shockwaves.
