That is why they are not the pretties. I am trying to get an idea of where to place the batteries and what is needed to mount the servos. My orginal servo mounting was not good so had to make some other spacer to put on them. I need to get back to the design board so can get closer to production of it.

I see that your pretty into this project, whats the reason you like the mgt soo much?

Well it is tough, good suspension, and has good diffs from factory. It is remarkibly like a maxx but better built from factory.

Sould make for a great allrounder 1/8 electric MT.Good for bashing but with good handling so could make a racer too.

Maybe the x-brace could work with the MGT too,with a different set of plates like with the revo.

Yea, it wouldnt be any harder than the revo chassis for sure!

I not sure. The top arms mount to the chassis and the bottom mounts to the diff housing. It has a hybird type diff housing in it all ready. My brother has not broken anything in the other mgt I converted. He is running a 9xl on a 7020 esc to. 14-16 cells. I want to design a lower cog like i got going for awesome bashing and better handling. I have a design almost drawed up. I am was thinking of sticking with the one piece solid chassis design like the stocker. One of the strongest chassis I have seen.

Update
 

I decided to up date. I decided to change to a center diff. I want to get a better mounts made. I just testing to see and make sure it is cool. The handling is better. Wheelies gone. It seems to have fair speed. So fair I would say it is a sucess. Attachment 1623

Diff mounts
 

I got the new diff mounts mike made for me. I got them installed last night. I have not got a chance to test them. Here is the pics.

Wow, that's nice. Do most buggy use the same size diff and mounts? If so, Mike should sell these on his store! They look relatively simply to make and look quite strong. Although, personally, I'd like to see some taps so the tops of the mount could be connected together for strength - like how the stock mounts are made. While he's at it, a side-mount could be designed too. I might see if I can order these myself.

BTW: the last link doesn't seem to be valid...

Thatis why i put the brace on back side. I think it would bolt on a buggy pretty easy. it is a ofna buggy diff in it. I test run it today. It works alot better than the last one. Ran it with half wore out spur and it didn't strip. It seems to move pretty good though.
