Please teach the conversion method that I am the cheapest, and is simple.

Cheapest is to make your own mount and use the 2 speed pinion adapter that is sold here on rc-monster.

You can also look at the square motor mounts for use on nitro conversions at impakt rc if you don't want to make your own.

Or the more expensive but very nice route would be products made by the dude.

voting for the dude, i used all his products for my (on-going) conversion.

i have
square motor mounts 1515 2.5
RCM pinion 19,20,22,25T
I am interested in TRD very much.
but expencive;(

TRD stuff is like anything, you get what you pay for.

Plus "the dude" is a great guy who is very concerned with customer service. If you join lst forums and go to their custom conversion area there is a ton of info on his motor mounts and other parts he offers. All of the prototyping and testing was done on that forum. Lost of good info.

I use his motor mount and single speed hub. I also have a colleted pinion adapter that he made. All well made and finished parts.

thank you...info
I have MUGGY, but is the run filling of LST similar very much?

I just received an LST2 roller today from another member and it has the TDR single speed hub and the collet pinion adapter. These are two very well made products and after seeing these I will say they are well worth the money. I spent 5 years running a machine shop and can tell you these are top notch and I doubt he is making much off of them.

I too would recommend using The Dude's parts I have his motor mount, single speed, and colleted pinion adapter. All are top quality parts and he is great with customer service.

He does batches of them to keep the prices down, plus he farms out some of the work, and finishes them up himself on his own equipment. Great guy, if you want to throw an idea for something at him he will definitely give it thought...

Yeah, he needs to be on the "good online seller" list for sure!

I could help but find the humor in someone going by bad karma talking about good customer service....:lol:

Maybe it's just me, but I thought it was good for a smile.:intello:

I figured he did batches. I still know though that there is several hours in each piece and I can't see any flaws on it. I just know machinists are everywhere but good ones are hard to find. I think I will be ordering his motor mount as well so I get exactly what I want. I bought the LST2 off Twztd(sp) and he has a homemade motor mount on it for a KB458XL and while it is beefy and functional it is not quite what I want.

2 years ago when I was hiring an experienced CNC Machinist/Programmer I could not believe the garbage I got for resumes. I swear if people had looked at a CNC Machine in a magazine they sent me their resume. I got a great guy in the end though.

Hey TexasSP, you've only just seen the light in all the Bad Karma?:lol:

Name came from an old gamertag online and just got passed on, but it's all good:wink:

I am bidding it in XXL.

Reminds me of my metal thoughts after meeting a friend's sister a few years back...

Any of you guys know where I can find info on how to "Muggify" (I think that's the term) my LST2? If you have any feedback or thoughts on doing this conversion please tell me as I need a new project.

I think some people use the shocks and shock towers from the muggy and lower profile tires like the muggy. If you have creative skills, you could even put in a center diff (which I am doing).

Thanks for answering...I stopped being lazy and logged back onto lstforums.com and found the big post on it. I actually thought it was something more. The LST2 I have was my first vehicle back into RC after a long time. Then I drove a truggy a few months later and abandoned it because the truggy was a blast. Anyhow, I realized I had a lot of money in mods and spare for the LST2 and wanted to see what options were out there for brushless and making it handle better.

When your done putting in the center diff please post up some pics and info. Just by looking at the chassis, I am impressed that your going to do it.
