excellent! thanks for that. the model shops are shut today...so i'll see if a store that sells bearings will have one. i still dont know what's happened to it. whether i lost it or it never came with one.

muscleflex

maybe the high speed needle needs adjusting? probably still a tad rich?

just to let you all know about the person that thinks they lost a bearing i just sent info to associated and it is coved under warenty i got a bearing comming because mine did not have one eather and my dog bone broke the first day and they are sending me the new parts they are great to work with just thought i would let you all know

muscleflex

wow! that's great! i'll try and email associated directly then. i emailed the distributor here in the UK when my axle broke but they just ignored my email. stupid asses! lol.
anyhow, i called up my model shop and they have a tamiya bearing that's the same size so i'll be buying it on saturday. but i now have 12 wheel axles! lol. all my orders have arrived. i'm gonna try and sell them on ebay as i can't see me needing so many spares! lol

by the way - do you know what their email address is?

RC Car Action gave the MMGT 3.0 the cover for the newest issue. They also did a sweet review on it and it gets nothing but love so far..........I love mine!!!

Are Proline Badlands wider/taller than the stock tires on the MMGT? I don't trust that the specs on Proline's site are accurate, and I don't want a bigger tire than stock.

duckedup

The Badlands are smaller. MGT = 178mm tall, PL Badlands = 148mm -- [link=http://www.groundpoundersrc.com/index.php/topic,145.0.html]Tire Chart[/link]

Thanks duckedup.

have any of you guys put a new body on ur mmgt? if so who was it made by and what truck is it actually for? i set my friends tmaxx body on mine and it seemed just a little too big. therefore i am asking what(af another) other mt body will fit nicely on it?

muscleflex

talking of bodies - i'd love to know that too coz i am thinking of cutting a hole on my body for the pull start as i'm sick of taking the body off everytime i want to start it! :-(

anyone cut their bodies for the pull start yet?

Ryno88

i've cut my stock body for the pullstart, a refueling hole, and an airflow hole in the windshield. the way i cut my pullstart hole was very easy. i set the truck over a light to see where the pullstart was in relation with a part of the body. just cut the rear driver's side window out. then cut up to on the roof of the body to allow a straight pull on the starter. mine is maybe an inch and a half wide. but i have fat fingers, so you may not need to make it that big. or if you dont want it low like mine so its easier to get ur fingers around the pullstart you dont have to cut the whole rear window out, but i'd imagine it'd look a little wierd with only about half the window there.

muscleflex

lol - thanks ryno. a pic would be nice tho!
someone on youtube just sent me a msg saying there's a general recall on the MMGTs because of engine problems. is this true? i kinda dont believe it but i might as well check with you guys

theslam19_98

ok about a body i have cut a revo 2.5 body it was a proline body dont have pics yet but it does look good and about the pull start there is a easyer way just put on a roto start then you just need a little hole and if the motor thing is true how do we find out i got the parts today that i needed on warenty

Ryno88

ok i'll uplaod a picture for you muscle.

Ryno88

i just checked the ae website and there is not a recall on the mmgt. if there is it hasnt been posted yet. the only recall is on a reddy quasar peak charger.

ThermalRD

Nitroburn, the stock MMGT tires are about the exact same size as a badland mt. I have both of them here. Duckedup posted the specs for the standard MGT. As for bodies, you might wanna look at some axial bodies, they are kinda smaller. I have a Losi Grappler rock crawler body here for some paint work, that looks close in size. I'll compare the bodies.

Ryno88

here ya go muscle

Ryno88

here's the only broke parts on my truck. bumper rings. i gotta order some more, because when im jumping, if i land too far on the back or the front the get jammed up against the body and the body has scratches and dents from it.

Ryno88

i have a video of it tearing around on break in if you guys wanna see that. not very exciting though. soon as the weather is nice again i'll have my mom or my neighbor run the camera and get some new footage for you.
