I´m planign to convert my Cen atx to a MT.
anyone who have any tip of what i have to change on my atx.
Shocks, wheels, Gearbox(?), body & bodymount i guess.

Can i have T-Maxx shocks, T-maxx wheels and T-Maxx body?
These parts is easy to find for me tho my lokal hobbie store sells T-Maxx parts.


And some links to webshops where i can buy the parts (Must chip worldwide, I live in sweden ) would be nice!

You wil need zero offset 2.2 wheels and probaly Masher 2000 tires. You cannot use T-Maxx wheels without modification to the truck and suspension.
For gearing you will need to change the clutchbell to the 11/14 clutch bell G84309-04.
MT body mounts
You can use the ATX shock tower and shocks.
1/10th scale truck body. T-Maxx or Stampede will work.

For international shipping www.ehobbies.com is your best bet.

Do i need new Pinion Gears when i change the clutch bell?

If you get the clutch bell I mentioned it will come with the pinion gears already on it. The spur gears (the big red ones) are the same for both the ATX and the MT2.

I forgot to add the only difference in the shock towers is that the ATX has the center cut out to mount the buggy body.

Thanks allot rolland!
I think thats all i need to know =)

I found out that eHobbies don´t ship the Masher 2000 tires outsid the states.. =/
And the stock MT tiers is so damn expensive in europe.. =/

How about a local hobby store? They might be able to get them because they are not vehicle specific.
There is also the Proline Moab 2.2 tires that is about the same size as the Mashers.

The only reason that I have suggested the Mashers or Moabs is because they are the biggest 2.2 tires that I know of. Imex might have taller, they don't post the dimensions on their website.

I was at my LHS yesterday and order stock Cen MT wheels, The body mount and the clutch bell.
Whats the different between Mashers, Moabs and the stock FF MT Wheels?!

The price i have to pay for the Tires is 32USD = 250SEK a pair, which is not that expensive for me.

Once again thanks Rolland!

The Proline tires will have better traction than the stock tires but they are smaller, about a half inch.
The stock MT2 tires are about the largest 2.2 size tire you can get, they are also one of the most expensive.
If that is your price for the wheels and tires that isn't that expensive. If it is just for the tires it is about 15.00 more than a pair of Mashers or Moabs.

Can i have any of those wheels on my MT?!

You should be able to use those. On the Stampede wheels make sure you get the ones for the front of the electric Stampede or the rear of the Nitro Stampede.
I'm not 100%sure on the Ofna wheels but it looks like it has enough offset.

ive seen the ofnas on a few cen mts, they look pretty good to me.

was it azzmans mt that had these wheels? cant remember now...

I think i will be the RPM Clawz Chrome Wheel for my MT.

Do you guys know about any good european webshops for R/C?
