Ok... I impatiently installed an LMT 3100 motor on 14.8v (MGM Compro 8012-3s esc). It's a bullet for such an enormous truck. :shock:
I think I'm going to install a 2nd steering servo or I may try the A&L steering stiffening kit I got on eBay. It...

I am looking at upgrading to an ESC. As of right now I am still running the mechanical speed controller with a LiPo that I picked up for $15. Once I made that switch, I went from about one and a half minutes to 25. I cut it off at 25 minutes to...

Hey folks, just joined up after browsing through the forum and I really like what I see so I figured I'd throw some of my projects up. I like restoring/restomoding older rc's so I'll start with my current project. This is an MRC Thunder King I...

Hey,

I was wondering if you had a parts list for the carriers and gear you used to allow for hex wheels? I just received a Thunder King for rebuild and am trying to figure out my options. Any luck finding dog bones or some substitute? Thanks!

You're welcome.

Early E/T - Maxx tires are 3.2, the newer stuff is 3.8. Switch was around 2006-2007 I think. 4970 is the early 3.2 tire part number.

How similar is it to the Thunderking? Is it just body mounts and tires or is there more? Really want to build one but you only see the Thunderking's for sale.

I need help finding rims and tires to fit my old MRC baja king. I can still use my rims if I can find some tires to fit them. Any help would be great. Thanks.

Last post

I have a Desert Thunder buggy, tires got flattened in storage. Wish I could find a set of these or a way to fix the ones I have ?

Good Luck.
