I was planning on taking a mbx5T and stretching it to a 5th scale size. Making the longer chassis is simple enough as well as having longer center drive shafts can be had as well. My only hesitation was the a-arms not being wide enough. I felt that the stock 5T arms would not be wide enough for my liking. Another 1" wide 2" over all would be perfect. In saying that, if someone could cut some quality plastic arms to those specs...then you would have something.

The truck then would be fairly light and even on 6s it would go fairly well..

Just my 2 cents worth
