MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - Mr. Tune - 08-12-2005

Since I'm going to help bernie work on the new track this saturday I might be making a pit stop at LH.

Do they carry MBX5 parts? I'm looking to pick up a wing and wing stay for the revo.

What else do I need? How long do the screws need to be that attach the wing stay?

You have to drill holes in the rear shock tower right?


MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - snakebite46 - 08-12-2005

Screws should included in the wing stay if I remember right. If not, 3x30's and then cut off what you dont need.
Mr.Tune, I'll be out there tomorrow also. I can bring my pit box and you can take the bolts you'll need. I'll also bring the stake I owe you too =)


Rcdad, yes you have to drill holes in the body mount.

That's one nice thing about the Stampede rear shock tower, it already has the holes.

Revo's don't have shock towers....

Sounds like a plan rich. I shall see you tommorrow. What time are you planning on being there?


MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - snakebite46 - 08-12-2005

Around 9:30-10 probably.


MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - Mr. Tune - 08-12-2005

Alright cool. See ya then.

I'll be in MI or I'd help you guys out there.....

Tune, they make a kit that comes with the wing stay and mount braces plus the screws you need for $17. You still buy the wing separate.
Otherwise you have to buy everything separately, wing stay, mount braces, screws (if desired) and a Wing if they don't have the "kit" in stock.
I have always run Mugen wings but people say the ProLine wings are stronger.

Does anyone sell a black wing? Or am I gonna have to buy a white one and some dye?


MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - snakebite46 - 08-12-2005

TTR makes black wings.
Get the Wing stay from e-bay. Theres a guy in St.Louis that parts out MBX's
14.00 shipped (everything included) minus wing

just dye a proline wing, unless you just like getting packages in the mail Big Grin


MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 08-12-2005

A long time back I recall someone writing about using 1/8 wings on 1/10 trucks. Is this a rules problem anywhere anyone races?


MBX5 wing and wing stay on a revo. - Mr. Tune - 08-12-2005

Packages in the mail are fun, except I have a race on sunday. So all will be purchased on saturday (hopefully) at lh.
