Well, i've got a rather sweet maxx, that i can run with komodo tires.. I am more of a MT fan, than the 1/8th buggy.

The steel spurs kil a pinion within a run or two.. You need hardened pinions if your planning on using a steel spur.

I did built a HB lightning to electric though, and that made me decide taking a g-maxx chassis to build up my maxx .. Making it more of a truggy than a truck. with komodo tires, it actually is more of a buggy.

And the reason it got a bit misty, was because i thought you where asking about a setup for the buggy you showed in your openingpost. not about the hyper 7..

I am working on a centerdiff convesion for the maxx, i only don't like the 5mm shafts the ofna diffs use. I am going to make an adaptor that allow me to use the UE/Savage sized diffs with an ofna spur (wide tooth and plastic too) i can make it fit to any kind of diff, i allready figured something to include a slipper as well, (dierectly on the diff) though i don't think a centerdiff needs a slipper that bad, so i might as well drop this idea. But once i get my lathe and mill, who knows what will happen on another lost night..

Aren't you interested in building a BL savage? I am going to buy a stock K4.6 ss kit, and sell the nitro stuff, it's a cheap and very durable truck, and it allready includes one of the lightest monster tires available and some other 'brushless ready' hopups, such as 6 spider diffs and a heavy duty drivetrain.
