Super Experiment... :&

[mentolio]

I think the rims are 3.8's (?). They are a bit less than 3 inches in width, and they fit a 40-series tire. The hex-drive size measures out to be 23mm. The stock tires are huge (almost 8 inches in diameter).

As far as parts interchangeability, I think it's pretty limited. Axles are definately different in construction and the gears they use. I'm sure you could throw a set of MaxStone axles under a Mad Torque if you wanted to with a minimum of aggro. I'm just now learning that the MaxStone 8 may be a carbon copy of the Integy iRock, but I've got to do a bit more research on that one (hopefully-so, Integy has aluminum gears for the iRock!). I'll post the data when I know more.

ok man thanks i was hoping it would be a straight swap for rims and tires:( the hexs on the torque are 17mm i guess i could just get an adapter or something.. are the tires pretty soft? i know the ones for the torque are pretty decent with good foams or mods to the stock foams i might look into swapping the axles instead though???? just a thought could u get some measurements on the axle width and maybe the upper and lower links? i might just use my chassis and swap the rest out??? just an idea...

Dang the mail man is slow... I need my parts to fix her up. Though tonight I did replace the front shocks with some buggy shocks I had laying around so I can adjust the spring rates. The front felt way too stiff. Now, I think it's just about good... but well find out once my replacement parts get here

I'll post some pictures soon. Gotta keep unpacking the house.... so tired of unpacking.

iv ben reading other posts on the web .acording to some of them the maxstone 1/10th scale stearing nukels will fit .if this is true you could convert it to a 1/10th scale .

hay i was just wondering if u had anny plans on making a simmilar setup in a (BTA) version? hint! hint!

Not BTA but I will be working on an OTA similar to what you would see on a super bully. Work's been crazy and I'm trying to get my finances back in line now that I'm moved so I can start production, design and testing again.

Looks good, i'll be curious to see how well they work. What size to up cut them for? Looks like 40 series.

Man get your $hit together ... I got some ideas I want to throw your way see if you can help me out with .. I'm intrested to see how these tires work out too.. go big or go home, and if it aint broke your not trying hard enough

Took her out today at Palmer Park after the comp to test out the softer foams... Totaly hooked up... just need a few more OZ in the front and wire up my duel ESC... and she should be golden.

So how your going to run your dual ESC? I'm thinking of doin the same thing and I've read threads on setting them up on stick radios controlling them sepertally...

I thinking of getting a dx6i preferably used and runing front and rear axle independant on each stick. Im going to wire up the esc in a way that i can unplug it from the super and drop it in the xr only loosing the rear stear function. Save a little $$$ while im at it.

You can also use an Axial AX10 knuckle (directly on the axle with no need to modify anything.) These are cheap or free from your local crawlers.

The venom knuckles *should* fit, but I haven't personally verified this.

I haven't tried the venom knuckle mainly because the bearing size is a touch deferent. But the AX10's will work perfect for you, Aluminum, high stear etc... it's up to you.

Sweet thanks for the help

[MMjeep]

you said earlier you was putting a 10t pinion in the rear, did you ever do that? I was thinking bout putting a 14t in the front and leaving the stock 12t in the rear kind of the same thing. How do i know what the shaft diameter is? or the pitch count? Nitrorcx has very little description if any at all on the mad torque parts.

[monkeyracer]

1/8" shaft, 32p gear.

I tried but I havn't goten a change to do it yet with moving and not to mention, I accident'y bought the wrong shaft diamiter pinion. One of these days, I'll try it out once i get some time. The Super is on hold at the moment till I get the ESC back from CC that went bad.

I think 1/8" is the same as 3mm, am i right? Do you happen to have a link to any that would work? There are so many differant styles.
