The Big Joes are more for show. The truck handles much better with these and they weigh 1/2 a pound less per wheel.

cool build! I've been working on a MGT conversion with a center diff for sometime now. I too have started off with a 1717 and grown to dislike it and favor my 1520 more. but..my truggy really should have its motor back...

I too had cogging issues with my 1717 when i first started my conversion and i had to revert to the (iirc) 1.24 firmware and my cogging issue went away. I have never felt that my system is super over-powered like i've seen and read? on 5-6's in my truggy or mgt with center diff they are fast, but wont rip huge wheelies at WOT?

Idk if it's just my gearing and fluids or what. What are you running for thicknesses in your rig?
