Cleanest E-Muggy On RCM!!!

[Jahay]

i know what you mean... I taped my badlands and it worked great till one let go... Now two have let go and my truck is all over the place.

I will not tape again, but i will need to find some wheels that do not balloon which i think is impossible for 1/8 scale truck wheels.

Anyone know anything that doesnt balloon? baja tyres? decent truggy tyres?

Maybe the truggy GRP grip can do the job. They are perfect balanced stock and balloon not much, but I doubt it will be OK with your 9S 1600 Kv setup

Forgot i took this pic while at the park with the truck, the buggy wheels on such a big truck look a little funky but very practical.

GRP needs to make a truggy tire just like the Rally combo for buggies, then its over and done with on tire issues.

Nitrostarter. Think outside the box. There are proper size tires on the market, Just need a little modifying to make them fit. Miamiz knows what I'm talking about.

Enlighten my mind please sir...

[Jahay]

please enlighten me too :) i need this asap

In due time, gentlemen. I'm sure Miamiz will post up an update when he gets off his arse and mounts them up. In the meantime, Here's my almost done muggy conversion:


Oh and i don't know what Miami'z was talking about with the losi tray almost lining up No way that was lining up for me without bending the crap out of the tray. I chose to mount it on the rear nitro holes (need to move the ESC inward a little bit from the pics) and simply drill/countersink a new hole up front. I also chose the Losi receiver/servo tray because i had it lying around (I stole it off one of my 8ights )

I know how you did it, Smartass. it was still too far off on mine. Maybe the hardened chassis you have has the pipe mount a little bit closer to lining up.

[JThiessen]

It lined up for mine also - but I used a V1 tray (didn't have that dog leg on it).

Hello,
I like the heavy large tires ;) Are the diffs helical on the Losi muggy ?

[DCastaneda]

Idk, all i know is that it DID thread in but the tray was bent upwards in the middle which looked ghetto rigged.So I moved it back and drilled a new front hole.

@ Nuz, Don't think the muggy diffs are helical.

[MiamizFinest]

Got some spare used muggy diffs laying around, cracked them open to take a pic. There slightly helical.
