Good looking buggy you got there. Looking forward to the conversion. :yes:

DickyT 10.28.2008 06:35 PM

Thanks, as am I. I should have it in hand by the middle of next week, but I need the middle of next month to spend any money unless I get motivated and sell the revo roller off quickly. The rc-m diffs and a nice roller would easily pay for a battery tray, rc-m mount, and body with no nitro holes cut in it (one with said holes in included).

I was looking at this buggy earlier tonight! I own a mbx-5 so you will love it.

What threaded body shocks do you guys think I should put on it? It must happen, I hate dealing with clips. It will be track driven a few times a month and bashed the rest of the time.

Why the hate for clips? I've never had one pop off, and they do a good job of making sure each side is exactly the same. Of course, they don't look as good...

Clean looking DickyT. First an E-Maxx, then an E-Revo, and now a Buggy....have fun!

I see your point about being sure each side is even... I may just have to suck it up.
I hate them because I'm clumsy when adjusting them ad drop them in the dirt and lose them. :yes:

I've got a Prospec roller sitting here that I used all summer. Your going to like it I'm sure.

I never had a problem with the shock spacers. Believe me mine was bashed and crashed plenty. I never had one come off. :mdr:

That thing is going to be a handfull with that motor. How many cells are you going to run?
