I recently took my mbx-5 out for some practice jumping....for 2 full battery packs...5s 4k, the buggy was 8 -12ft. off the ground most of the day and I only bent a front shock shaft....so to say that it is strong, is an understatement.

Next time I will bring a camcorder! The only prob. w/a vid., is where we run is underneath a lot of trees so the lighting is not the best.

As I told you on IM, that thing is gonna be awesome man, can't wait to see it done!

For shocks, get the new MBX6 big bores, best thing you can do!

Big bores make the car so much better =)

Looking forward to the conversion

I was really hoping it would take you a lot longer to do your buggy project than it's going to take for mine... lol

Don't feel bad, mine's still not done either (waiting for the lipos so I can make the tray). Not exactly the typical setup, but this is my MBX5r buggy:

I will probably be trading my 18t for an x1-cr... that looks like what I want to do to the Jammin if things go that way. :intello: except I will put a front shock tower and shocks on the rear.. maybe..

Will the Ofna hyper 8.5 diffs fit the mugen? I know mugen uses odd sizing. when I destroy them I;d love to put a set of the ofna 8.5's in

DickyT 11.07.2008 12:00 PM

Well... I'm having issues getting the buggy. The seller shipped it the middle of last week parcel post with no tracking or delivery conformation.... rather frustrating. I have the rc-m goodies to convert it here though! just need said buggy to arrive.

TheRandom1 11.07.2008 12:04 PM

That sucks man... you need a horse's head to end up in his bed? I know a guy...

DickyT 11.12.2008 12:19 PM

It arrived today, i will start conversion tonight!

TheRandom1 11.12.2008 12:23 PM

Congrats man! *cancels trip to Wi* lol
