Got a few more pics. Don't mind the dirt, I actually got a chance to run it a bit this past weekend.

And some close ups

How tough is that thing?

Hows the drive train?

Looks really nice! Awesome job on the motor mount!

So far seems very tough, it did a lot of cart wheels and flips when running the Big Maxximum (before thicker chassis). Nothing broke, until I actually hit something (mailbox always jumps out in the way), and busted a front bulkhead.

Drive train is very tough, same as the LST2 only different ratios, upgraded to TiNi diff gears and sportwerks hardened spider gears, as well as aluminum housings f/r and aluminum center diff cup.

Thanks.

Did you actually have trouble with the diffs, or just upgraded as prevention?

I just upgraded as prevention, figured I would rebuild everything with the new chassis. I actually ran the stock diffs with aluminum cases when I had the Big Maxximum in there, and no problems with that much power.

This is the best looking Muggy I have ever seen or will ever see, good job.

im startin my muggy conversion on thursday hopefully i get i done in a week i very eager to see this thing run. i have to send out my center diff to mike so he can make me a motor mount. i was thinkin of tryin to put a kb45 in it but i think that might be overkill especially for the track. so ill prolly put a 9xl and 5s. have u ran urs on 5s if so how was it? i think it should be fast enough for racing.

bdebde · 02.17.2008, 05:43 PM

5s should be plenty for the track with proper motor (maybe 1515 1Y). I never ran mine on 5s, but 6s makes a LOT of power.

Nice Muggy, great motor mount. I have to get out of my slump and finish mine, kind of hard when your watching your pennies.

thanks for the vids i think i might try the kb45 8xl maybe even the 8l(it puts out over 3400 claimed watts) i have to find out about gearing i found an adapter for mounting it and i think ill order a 16024 and a 6s maybe even try 7-8s ill bash and beat on it a lil before race season who cares i have my 8ight-t for racing
