|  rock hard's mini moonbuggy
I got my little T1E today,first thing I did was weigh it.Now if you know me,you know I cant leave well enough alon sometimes.I plan to try to shed a few more grams from it still,mostly up top.I notilced the lines were very clean,and I especially like the recessed skid for the trans.   I also picked up a few goodies form TCS for this truck.I want it to be a real performer,and these are a must in any mrc IMO. hot racing alum trans gears from TCS http://www.tcscrawlers.com/Hot-Racin...T-p-18164.html  super light hot racing alum diff lockers from TCS http://www.tcscrawlers.com/Hot-Racin...8-p-17250.html  wide alum. hot racing 12mm hex's from TCS http://www.tcscrawlers.com/Hot-Racin...8-p-17416.html  If you dont own a set of wideners,you need to order some NOW.There is no reason not to own a set at this price,again from TCS http://www.tcscrawlers.com/2.2-Wheel...g-p-16233.html Last edited by rock hard; 11-01-2010 at 07:08 PM. |

Looking good Paul. I can tell you that you'll need to order some spares for those HR diff lockers. I kill the small one pretty frequently. When you start to see that wheel (IIRC, it's the passenger side) start to have more play than the other, the locker is about to die. My passenger wheel will rotate about 1/4 of a turn right before the locker goes out. |

the alum locker has never given me any issues.The alum locker is cleaner,lighter and a better chioce to carry the bearing IMO than the stock plastic. | |

I am sure that the RCBros locker is a much higher quality aluminum than the HR. HotRacing isnt known for their quality and strength. RCBros makes an aluminum locker for the berg that seems to hold up very well.....so I am sure that their locker for the MRC is of the same quality.
