gazza Posted July 20, 2014 Report Share Posted July 20, 2014 If you like the looks of, and racing the Fly trucks, you will be more than happy with MJK's latest release Many an enjoyable race meeting has been cut short due to .... guide posts snapping and even the chassis cracking around the rear axle housing The new MJK chassis does away with all these problems and allows you to get down to some serious racing This kit is by far MJK's most complicated, complicated in the amount of preparation and manufacturing that has gone into it The kit contains everything you need to get that damaged truck back on the track, or to make your existing one bullet proof Everything from the existing plastic chassis is simply transferred across Detailed instructions are extremely easy follow, and each kit contains all the brackets to suit all four models, Mercedes, MAN, Sisu and Buggrya Being laser cut, the chassis very clean and smooth, you may need to run a round file over the motor support brackets to ensure a nice fit The guide support arm is nice and strong, with good solid lugs to stop the guide from spinning around (an earlier plastic problem) As the new chassis is all metal all the weight is now low on the track, and there is no need to add any extra weight to it Link MJK has also released it's "Super Singles" range of wheels and Tyres for the trucks as well The overall width is the same as the original, and replacement duel set If you intend to use the "Super Singles" you will find that you may need to replace the existing axle assembly with the slot-it equivalent Quote Quickly read this post before it is deleted or i turn grey again Gary http://www.facebook.com/Rallyproxy2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadow_rusty Posted July 22, 2014 Report Share Posted July 22, 2014 (edited) Looking at these with great interest... Should be a good leveller for the Fly trucks, especially if the price is right...

Mobbzee Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) ok so im trying to put one of these under a buggyra but it doesnt fit. i dont know if the miniauto edition truck has a different body to the other buggyra's but im going to have to hack into the bodywork to get the rear of the chassis to fit into the body. has anyone had a go at putting one together yet and had the same problem? edit. the rear axle post width on the chassis is roughly 29mm but the body width is 26mm...its a fair discrepancy Edited August 11, 2014 by Mobbzee Quote http://www.auslot.com/forums/index.php?/topic/12014-mt-panorama-track/ ...My Track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_rusty Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) Not sure if you noticed, but there are 2 different rear body post mounts... Are you sure that they both don't fit? I believe that 'Number 3' on the left side of this diagram is for the Buggy's... It also looks like there are spacers between the plate and the chassis... Edit: Bugger, totally forgot that most Buggy's and Man's only have 1 screw in the rear... Does your have 2?

Mobbzee Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 it only has one........ the only thing i can think of ( without unboxing and pulling apart one of my buggys ) is that the miniauto ed. has a slightly different body Quote http://www.auslot.com/forums/index.php?/topic/12014-mt-panorama-track/ ...My Track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow_rusty Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) With the spacer installed, the MJK chassis should sit beneath the body. Having looked at a few (Mostly Merc and Sisu installations), they all seemed to fit under they bodies, rather than 'inside of' the bodies. Or is the issue that the axle mounts aren't fitting inside of the body? Edit: Just re-read your original post... Please ignore me... Apparently I need more sleep... Seems like yes, if the axle mounts are not fitting inside the bodies that there must be different bodies arround with different widths between the 'uprights'... The only solution that doesn't involve cutting up the body would be a new motor/axle mount.

FLY in the wall Posted August 11, 2014 Report Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) Nice as they are I am unlikely to buy one of these chassis, without buying another truck first, but my Racer Buggyra appears to be the same as the Miniauto one! One hole. I don't race but doesn't using a single rear tire defeat the "essence" of a truck?

xr8 Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Put the chassis under a Sisu as buggyras are quick out of the box. After a bit of fiddling it gained a half second a lap, bit fiddly to put together but a good kit just the same.Dale Quote RUBBINS RACING SO HARDEN UP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLY in the wall Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) Sorry to bump an old thread. For a laugh i just bought two Scalextric trucks. Does anyone think there is enough adjustment possible as the scaley trucks have a slightly longer wheelbase? i don't have them yet so cannot measure. Who has them?

Lloyd Lucas Posted May 25, 2017 Report Share Posted May 25, 2017 sorry to bump an old thread but looking at getting a buggyra, the chassis kit, super single rims and tyres. what axle would i need and is there anything else i'd need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazza Posted May 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 With the super singles i think the slot-it axle is the best to use, you might as well use a slot-it crown as well Quote Quickly read this post before it is deleted or i turn grey again Gary http://www.facebook.com/Rallyproxy2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalbfellp Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 I would be carefull with tyre selection, these Elephants need to slide a bit. You will also need rear bearings,to suit the Slot it rear end. Quote Phil https://www.hobartminiaturecarclub.com/ Email Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
