TAMIYA TNX PRO

Yes you can put the 5.2 chassis on the older TNX. The center dogbones will swap front to rear since the trans is mounted further forward. Look into the 5.2 spur gear or doing the Revo spur gear conversion and then use either a Revo clutch and clutch bell or use a 3 shoe clutch set up like the MGT and Savage use. The steel dogbones from the 5.2 would probably handle big block power better than the plastic axles too. Most parts are interchangeable between the 2, like suspension, bulk heads, bumpers, body posts, trans, etc. Post some pictures when you can of the conversion.
