Default RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Hey guys,

I have done some work on my mt2 - the two speed and big block are out of the truck as a single speed matched with a small block make the truck much more controllable in the winter - and just completed a DUAL TANK MOD for it. I now have two tanks mounted on the truck and the second tank is in the original position of the battery pack. The tank fits like a glove in this position, although some cutting to the radio box was required. Now, since my mt2 is mainly for on-road use, I aimed to moving its center of gravity as far forward as possible as the wheelies with the big block got quite annoying. To achieve this, I happily moved the receiver between the shock tower and body mount (just fit) and zip-tied the hump pack on top of the steering assembly. I installed a three-way switch also so that charging does not involve me cutting and removing the hump pack every time. The pictures below speak the rest. If you have any questions about the mod feel free to ask. Peace
