Can the MR4-MT be converted back to a buggy?

[sgirouard]

I guess there's not a lot more to be said. What would be involved in converting and MR4-MT to a buggy?

There's the obvious, body mounts, tires/rims, body.

I ask ye of the Yokomo Knowledge?!?!

there was MR-4BC which was a buggy. MT seems to have same arms with BC. conversion would be possible

[sgirouard]

Thanks. Yeah, I was thinking the same. Most of the stadium trucks made before 95 or so were just the buggies with big tires and truck bodies.

yes just get the buggy body an rims an tires with a wing an ur all set im converting one into a truck myself as i have two buggys

[Mr. ED]

It would be a pitty to convert into a buggy. Those trucks are so much rarer: as there never was a class for 4WD trucks they wre a commercial failure. I love the body: one of the best looking race truck bodies around.

yea im lucky my freind used to have one ab decided to convert to a buggy an never used the rims tires or body hewent an picked upthe long wheel base conversion an some buggy rims an tires so ive decided to buy the parts from him an make a self queen outta one

I didn't end up getting the truck but now I wish I had for you Mr. ED. It was on Ebay.

Had bearings installed, U-joints in the rear (and had the original bushings and dog bones and axles to convert it back), sadly it didn't have a body. But it sold for $20.50 plus $27 for shipping. I missed bidding on it by 1 minute (had to get pictures done for my kids, but I wasn't bothered because it wasn't the buggy I truly want).

Now I regret it a little more.

[Mr. ED]

Don't worry; I have more than I can drive already. (Read: I wish I could drive more , not: I wish I had less )

Which buggy are you really after then?

[sgirouard]

Ideally, a YZ-10 or an 870. But I gotta keep praying for the "deal" to come through on ebay LOL or someone wants to trade for a losi strike.
