MX4 info needed
Hi guys. I have a customer that wants lipo trays for MX4. Can somebody here provide a scan with dimensions,, or picture,, or let me borrow an actual set so I can make them? Thanks,, and provider will get a set for free of course...CNC 2.5mm carbon... good stuff,,, turn around would be less than a week.
Im pretty sure mx4 was before lipos,, so pictures and details could possibly help in the design process. Thanks again!

Re: MX4 info needed
I don't believe I've ever seen lipo trays for the MX4...maybe someone can correct me on this?
Re: MX4 info needed
Subject change so forgive me, but some direct fit, no fuss lipo trays for the Works chassis and '94 YZ10 would go down a hoot i reckon!

Re: MX4 info needed
I have new sets available and will surely trade one for a lipo set
Please PM where you want it posted to. I can also scan it for you to speed it up if you want.

Re: MX4 info needed
Ralphee, Im already making them for yz870c. Will those fit the works models? If not, All I need is a set of nimh trays,, or to borrow a chassis,, or a really good scan with dimensions. Then I can make other trays too. I have been trying to score a works car,, but the price is a bit high. Now,, is it true the works cars used the same center bulkhead motor mount as the older cars? If so,, then I just need to borrow a chassis,, and I can fab up a partial complete works car,, and make the trays.
Re: MX4 info needed
the works 91/92 have the same cell spacing as the 870, but the 93 car is only set up for 6 cells, and use the same motor mount as the early yz10/870

Re: MX4 info needed
Would the location of the cells in relation to the motor mount bulkhead be the same as the 870?

Re: MX4 info needed
I have lipo trays for mx4 available now. Its not a lipo friendly car. Shorty pack works best so as to not have to drill more holes. Standard hard case or saddle packs require holes to be drilled, and battery posts re located. No big deal,, but some folks are not into it. I prefer the shorty pack option.
Re: MX4 info needed
Kinda lost who i spoke to about these, now i find the thread lol, i want a pair of works trays (870) and, if i was to trace, draw round my '94 chassis, reckon we can get trays made, I'm running both mine now and could do with making the move to Lipo!

Re: MX4 info needed
If you can scan a trace of your chassis, and note where the bulk head screw holes are, and the standard battery post holes,, then Im pretty sure my 870 trays can be redrawn to fit. I would mock up a chassis, use my own hardware, and could have trays available in a short time.
Theres a guy already going to use a set of the 870 trays on a hybrid buggy of sorts. Looks like 93 works chassis with a few 91 works and 87oc parts. He thinks that possibly just relocating the post holes will make them work. Im curious to see how the 870 trays translate to the later cars.
