I finally had a chance to take the Muggy out for a spin yesterday. Apparently 50K in the center diff isn't enough.

(See pics)

On 4s it was fun and on 6s...well....time to glue the front tires on again. If I hit WOT at any speed it would just lift the front end and blow the tires off.

I'm going to try 30K in the front diff and maybe add some preload to the rear shocks. I'm hope to try and keep the front end down.

Enjoy the pics!

excuse me sir (boy this is embarrassing...) but your foams are showing!

Ha Ha nice.

What's even scarier is I was the person taking the photos. My 3 yr old was driving the Muggy!

Might I suggest some Gorilla Tape before you reglue the tires.

Very large field of grass!

He is actually getting very good. I started him with a mini revo at age 2. Now he has an E-Maxx and drives my flux conversion from time to time. He only goes fast when I give him permission. I'm a proud daddy.

If I could go back in time I definitly would have used gorilla tape on the wheels. That would have been a great idea. I already glued them. I may try beadlocks for the next set and I will use tape.

I got 120k wt in center on my RC8T now, and it still unloads alot up front hehe..

RC-NUT · 05.08.2011, 07:00 PM

120K

Well that's not reasuring. I had someone tell me to use JB weld and lock the center but I don't have the heart to do it. I also heard silly puddy works.

I'm running a 14T pinion at the moment. Anybody else have a Muggy? Just curious as to what you are running for gears.

honestly if 50k isnt enuff then maybe you need to look at a smart diff, i have one in my muggy and its holding up great aginst the 1717

I use 100k in my Muggy CD.

Very nice Muggy dude, I really regret selling mine and not converting it.

Might have to get another when I've converted my BNIB D8T.........

Nice shots man.

I had same issues on 5s w/ a 1520 in my mbx5t until I changed front diff to 30W and center to 100K that combo helped out a lot. I also run 20W in the rear.
