Also any idea what battery tray best fits the MBX6?

The spur gear is the stock 46T lightened spur that came with the kit. It sounds pretty crunchy, but it works great and I have had no problems at all. I'm thinking about doing the Kyosho plastic one but I don't think i'll ever get around to it, because it works fine as it is right now.

As for battery trays it depends on what size pack you are running.

I actually run Zippy lipos, which are larger than standard size lipos. Mike, the owner of the site, has made me a battery box that will fit this size. i'm sure he still has the size on file if you end up running zippy lipos.

The other way to go is to run standard size lipos, which will also work, once again, Mike sells these battery boxes here in the store.

To mount the battery box all I did was line up 3 of the stock holes in the chassis to the battery box, drill a few holes, threaded some screws in, and the job is done.
