If you use the m2c setup, get an ofna vented clutch bell, 10402 or 10403

Almost all clutches will fit with proper shimming-thougha a few require different engine mounts. The M2C just drops in though.

I mocked up my older style M2c clutch and got it to work with their engine mount. It's tight, but it fits (need to cut the center diff top plastic piece just a tad)

I got a FTW Night Fox body (for the mugen) and with very little modding it looks pretty good...

She's pretty. She is just missing the alum spring cups for the shocks

Woohoo! My v3 coupler / pinion has shipped! This is a must needed upgrade! Can't wait to install them! For the Truggy, I'll continue to use the v2 as it seems to be ok for now

Do not get the aluminum spring cups. They look great make no mistake but they sit very tightly on the shock end. Too tightly. I had to hammer mine in order to get them off. Not cool. Stick with the stock ones. They work the way they are intended. My four aluminum springs cups sit in my parts bag.

Mines don't. They work perfectly. They work getter than stock. I broke one of the plastic stock ones. All 4 alum fits perfectly over my shocks!
