WOW...just WOW

Hey, is that a picture of a MRP GP10? I thought I was the only one to ever buy/run one...

Felt like I was the only one anyway....

tatted chicks......... :roll: ...become tatted grammas. :? I agree, I hate to see beautiful skin on a pretty frame all inked up. It takes away from the natural beauty now, and decades later, they just look ridiculous. Somehow I don't think all those girls are entirely natural anyway :) yeah, I don'...

I have a recently resurrected T2 that I've been attempting to campaign against the newer trucks locally. Been doing pretty well so far, but I seem to have a penchant for breaking the rear arm mounts. One was actually not my fault with my son clipping a goal post while bashing with his little buddies...

Is there an inner slipper hub attached?

On my T2 its...shaft then inner hub, slipper clutch material, spur, hydradrive unit, ball raced washer, spring, spring hat, nut.

I have one mounted on my RC10T2...When rebuilding it...I used 10000wt Diff fluid. Seemed to be just about right compared to what was it it...

Yes, you do need a hydradrive topshaft as well as the hydradrive unit and spur

I've just recently picked up a very nice T2 off of ebay...I say RUN IT. You can get most parts readily on the net. Once sorted, they are a nearly indestructible, race worthy vehicle... Although...they seem to be less forgiving over jumps than the newer buggies...you have to hit them just right. Then...

Thought I'd chime in I have one. Purchased it for my Monster Beetle. Installs fairly easily and works a treat with larger size pinions. Initially I was worried about the motor sliding around a bit, but it has proven itself to be quite solid. I'm running an original and revitalized Trinity Monster Ho...

Wow...

I'm an audio engineer by trade...and work on cars (1/1 and 1/10th) for fun...I cant count the number of times I've impaled, electrocuted, inhaled, cut, bruised etc etc, myself over the years....

Both for fun...and for profit....

that's awesome. I tried to get my boy into R/C too...I even used my original 1987 Monster Beetle. He's autistic, so I figured it would be a good way for him to work on his hand/eye coordination and spatial distances (things he's always had trouble with). It worked for a while too...but that summer, ...

limiters added....as for rear ride height...lower? or higher?

I thought the optimum was to get the arms/cvds level?

Front: 30 wt shock oil #2 pistons stock 30 caster block 2 degrees camber 2 degrees toe out Green springs Rear 35 wt shock oil #2 pistons 3 degree toe IN blocks 2 degrees camber standard wheelbase Both front and rear arms are RPM. Ride height set so arms are parallel to ground...just about 200mm or s...

Hey all... I've got a resurrected RC10T2 that I've been slowly rebuilding to compete with some of the newer kids at our local indoor track. The track is very hard pack clay...almost concrete like... I'm running bar codes on all 4 corners and finally got the thing to track well. But over the jumps? e...

I used to/still use a small blob of shoe goo on the e-clips after they've been installed. Works great.

Wow...you've got like, the Holy Grail of Monster Beetle Mods there....

Seriously, SWEET build.
