If I may throw in a couple pennies...

I would get a lst2 over the muggy. My preference of course, but I do have both, and the lst is the better basher. It has a little more ground clearance, a little more suspension travel, and I prefer the tranny setup over the muggy's center diff.

I do have the FOC gear setup, with the gears swapped, a tdr single speed hub and am waiting on a tdr lst motor mount. I run 23/59 gearing and with a 1500kv motor on 6s with 40 series bowties it is at the perfect bash/play speed of 40mph.

Lst/muggy diffs are stout, especially with the al cases and the heavy duty 8t diff cups. I doubt that you will find a stronger drivetrain. I started with a new aftershock, which was not a bad price once I sold the radio and nitro stuff. But the aftershock has the lst1 suspension arms and hubs, and the lst2 are much stronger, as are the axles (true 1/8 type with 8mm ends and big bearings). Weight distribution is good with the battery in front of the tranny and the motor and esc behind. I run a 4500 30c 6s lipo, hacker c50 11xl (soon to be 1521 1y) and a MMM.

If you plan to buy either sign up to the lstforums. Tons of very good info there, and very little fluff to work around.
