Beefy Skidplates? - J-Dub - 03-28-2008
I see alot of guys with some beefy Alum Skidplates on their mugen T's and R's. I've been trying to find some but I can't. Any assistance?

You know if the plate will go on front and rear?
Beefy Skidplates? - Ponch - 03-28-2008
No idea.
Beefy Skidplates? - J-Dub - 03-28-2008
I just emailed the guy so we'll see.

What do you need em for? I dont think the mugen needs to be upgraded at all

Mugens chassis wears pretty quick in the rear, a skid would help.

Skid Plates are a must. Outdoor its even worse. I'd rather a 10$ piece of metal wear away than a 60-70-80 dollar chassis plate. >_<

Update: The Skidplates will in fact mount front or rear. Mugen Drivers, if you don't have these, they are a must.

check out neobuggy, there are some new plastic ones out now that will be much lighter
Beefy Skidplates? - J-Dub - 03-28-2008
I'll check it out. Didn't really consider the weight being added.
Beefy Skidplates? - motoxer4life - 03-28-2008
But plastic will wear quicker, right?
Beefy Skidplates? - Czech-it-Out Graphics - 03-28-2008
they come in 3 packs, claim wear like alum; prolly cost you half the price and you dont have a hunk of 6061 draggin the ass of that truck down any further lol
Beefy Skidplates? - J-Dub - 03-28-2008
yeah I'll probably order a couple packs. So I can use it on front and rear
