I have always loved the larger scale rc's...not their price tag though. For minimal costs...new center drive shafts, wheel extenders, a homemade chassis by me, a new body and mounts, it should be relatively inexpensive conversion as conversions go.

I would not be adding that much weight...just the extra 2-3" or so of AL chassis, which I would have milled out, and the weight of the new shafts, so lets say 6-8s w/a 10s controller would do nicely.

Anyone got at truggy they want to donate....just kidding. I must finish my Revo conversion 1st.

1. MBX-6 T8 1900KV, RX8 ON 4S
2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
3. MBX-5 ONROAD CONVERSION 1515, MMM ON 5S
4. MRX-3 ON ROAD CONVERSION 1512, MMM ON 6S
5. TEN T 2650 T8, MMP ON 3S
