The Yokomo MX-4, MR4-BC (I think I got that right), etc....... The later Yokies.

Wow that car with the Andy's arms has such a wafer thin cut-out graphite chassis. Very cool, fragile but cool. Nice collection.

wooooo.......really love those 5-spoke yellow wheels.......are they Yokomo products ??.......

If my maths serves me correct there are 6 spokes on those wheels

Nice collection for sure!

How did you modify the earlier models to fit the MX4 style wheels?

MX4 driveshafts can be made to fit the 95+ models for sure, not quite positive on the earlier ones. The MX4 driveshafts are a touch shorter than the stock YZ10 ones, but still seem OK. All that is needed are new bearings for the front and rear to accommodate the thicker MX4 axles. I can't remember the exact bearing specs, but the MX4 axles are 1mm thicker for sure, but I don't remember the bearing OD. Of course, finding the MX4 wheel hubs may be a tough order! All of this is in the works for me for a very special build, once I get the time!

thanks for the info! I didn't know about the MX-4 slipper being a direct fit. Good to know!

What chassis is that in the top right: with the battery slots on one side straight along the belt?
Is it for the buggies or on-road (YR-4?)
