BB Truggy Maxx
Im currenty in the process of turning my Tmaxx 3.3 in to a Truggy. I wont be racing it but i have always wanted a truggy. Heres what I've done so far...
Racer's Edge chassis
HPI Star 25 Not going to keep it i just have it laying around and it needs use.
Tsais pipe
Tekno Wing Mount
And one Bad@$$ Mo' FO' of a body...
Thats all i have right now, but im not done. What i need to purchase...
Integy Evo 4 Upper Arm's
Lowered shock towers
Dirt Bone Tires
Pro-Line Wheels
Mugen, Cen Genesis or HPI Vorza Shocks
Motor Mount
Chassis Braces
Losi 454 BB
This is what i know of so far.
Im having a Few Problems find ing parts for it.
1 I need to find a Motor Mount that will allow the use of a Big-Block. Its the same bolt pattern as the stock Motor Mount. I have contacted Racers Edge about it, still waiting though.
2 The chassis braces on my Tmaxx are to short. I have the older Tmaxx 3.3, the new Maxx is extended so those should do it. Can anyone confirm? My chassis is Black and Very Open.
And here's Pic's.........

Perhaps, but you should stay away from metal arms specifically, and Integy in general. Stiffening the arms will just make something else prone to breaking. An as for Integy, their parts aren't very good quality. I have heard nothing but bad about Integy.

RE: BB Truggy Maxx
I probaly could grind away the stock arms, but i like a little BLING. I dont jump my cars because they always go rear end up.
I have never had problems with Integy except my Integy shock breaking from wheelies and some off-road... LOL

RE: BB Truggy Maxx
I have a the HPI .25 mount and its to big. The stock 3.3 one fits but it wont allow a big block to be used. Is there a mount that matches the 3.3, but you can use a BB with it.
PS... Got my body today, its looks really nice.
