XTM xlb 1/7 scale buggy build

[CerberusVI]

Well my hardware came in yesterday and i now have the shocks fully setup on the xlb. I decided to stick with the maxx sized bowties i had on truggy wheels for now because the 40 series are huge lol.

Also another good note, Mike pm'd me today letting me know my mount was done! hopefully will get some pictures up soon!

Well i finally got my Aluminum shock bodies from Miamizfinest in the mail the other day and had a chance to put them together today. Still waiting for a email from mike so i can try and finish the project soon. Soldered up bullets onto the MMV3 and a castle 10a BEC also. Need to get a battery tray and radio box situated, but i want to get the motor mount and center diff back in before i do all that

Looks killa with the 40 series. I know it's not the better for handling but I like monster looks. IIRC muggy shocks are slightly shorter than lst. They might suit better on the front but I think they were only ever made of plastic.

Nice build

I think with the muggy shocks only the actual shock shafts where shorter. With the fronts I have now. I have limited the travel so they aren't as long as the rear. They seem to work pretty good now, but I'll find out once I actually get it running.

I hope it all turns out as good as your LST/muggy rigs panda. I saw pictures of the one you did with the buggy body and it looked really cool!
