Hey Pato, nice truck! just a few ?'s if you get a chance -
1. Do you run your truggy with this amount of toe out (from the pics it looks less than I use)
2. it looks like you are using the stock front hub carriers and rear hubs not the CNC ones. Any reason?
3. the fuel line looks like it is travelling at a bit of an upwards angle from the filter round the cooling head. Have you ever tried a shorter route direct from the filter to the carb?
4. it looks like you are running proline LPR crimefighters. do you use these on grass?
Thanks for your time.

Hi ! :
1.- Just tested the toe out setting on grass for the first time, ON GRASS its enough for me to have a very agile truck, on the infields where i need the car to turn very sharp i just use weight transfer front/back using little accel/brake so the truck when have front suspension compressed turns very very well. Cant say if im gonna end with this or more toe out in front.
2.- I just mounted the stock hubs because i think alum ones are not needed, the stock are very good quality and are lighter than CNC ones.
3.- Just routed the fuel line more or less per manual to test it in stock form, it will get better lol !!
4.- Nope, they are half offset standar MT wheels and tyres. And yes, i use them on grass without problem, other tyres with bigger pins just get too much traction for my taste.
cya !!

I need a new 66t spur gear and a 23mm blue wheel hex for the Matrix truggy. I have the 23mm nuts just missing one threaded blue part.
I have a brand new center diff pulled from a rtr Matrix buggy kit. It is complete except the brake outdrives. Includes the metal spur, internal gears, al diff cup etc. Let me know if you have an extra tr arena spur for trade. Thanks!

Cen racing website has setups for the TR

The only thing I would upgrade right away is the steering bellcrank, the stock plastic one won't last long, then as your skill level increases, you can start upgrading other parts. Pooldoc

Can anyone tell me what's the height of the steering knuckle on the CEn buggy or truggy...from one mounting point to the other)?

Thanks for the help. Will this steering part fit from the buggy to truggy?
