You may either flip them from right and left, and/or add spacers. The arm is 2-piece, thus you are able to space it to adjust castor. On this design, the pin actually stays put. Shots on how spacious the transfer case is.Ĭaster can be adjusted by multiple ways: Typically the lower arm can be shifted forward or backward by changing the spacers around. The front suspension blocks come with +0.5 blocks on front-front, and front-rear.ĩ screws and the top half is off, which makes maintenance a breeze. they are MST FXX-D specific gears, which as of now, has no cross referenced part with any other chassis.

Pro of this design? It's a lot more spacious so maintenance would be easier, however, the gears are not standard "Pinion" gears. The transfer case is also composed of carbon gears (the larger two), mating against steel gears (motor pinion, and the smaller gear). Luckily the plastic diff was given aluminum diff out drive covers to pro-long life and help endure stress.Īnd finally the transfer case. This may be a shock for some people, but the theory in this design is to act more like a Limited Slip Differential (LSD). The rear diff is a standard ball diff, composed of plastic housings. You can also see the 2.5 rear-rear suspension block, with the rear-front being -.5, giving an effective 3* toe in. Given out of the box is a 30g ballast weight, and you can see the rear-front suspension block is -.5, with the rear-rear block +2.5, giving an effective 3* toe in.Įxtra diffuser hole set for optional diffuser. It helps maintain proper tolerances longer. The additional rotational mass may be a bonus as well.īoth the upper and lower suspension arms are pin/hinge style, which is great. MST has made specific front axles for the FXX-D, it certainly looks a lot cleaner. I will get into detail about this when I dissemble the FXX-D. However this option hole is not useable out of the box. May I add though that It does come with a second "Ackerman" option hole setting. Unfortunately the center bridge is not length adjustable for altering Ackerman independently. It does feature an offset mount, so by switching it around, you alter the position of the entire steering assembly.
The FXX-D comes with Plastic uprights to keep the cost down, but have the same dimensions as the new MST KPI Uprights. Same parts that were used for the XXX-D HT suspension. Unlike MST's regular ball joint suspension, the FXX-D features pin/hinge style suspension.

Pro of this will be easy install for the motor, but a possible con is impacts may cause motor to shift and worst case, chew gears. The FXX-D features a clamp style motor mount.
First thing I noticed is that there is no motor plate to bolt. Unlike the Wrap-Up Next FR-D that is a conversion, this is an ARTR kit. It's finally here! MST's FXX-D RWD chassis kit.
