- Some upgrades and modifications I've done on my MF-01X chassis from Tamiya.
Please notice: With the steering mod, the servo saver lost it's function. If you use a weak servo it's possible it break.
Important Notice:
Be sure to retighten the small grub screw inside the universal shafts and use a bit of Loctite!
- Ball Bearings Tamiya TA-54643
- Lock the rear Differential
- Improve the Steering
- Installed CVA Super mini Shocks from Tamiya Part No.50746
- Installed Long Span Suspension from Yeah Racing

So nice to be in the shop with you. Good tips and upgrades. I have this model on my list to get so very helpful.
Thanks Martin! Good to got a feedback from you!
Excellent upgrades just brought the jimny looking forward to the running video thank you for taking the time to upload !
Thanks for taking the time to write your nice comment!
Always a pleasure to visit your garage. Thumbs up, Matteo.
Glad to hear this! Thank you!
It is so clever, how YR designed the suspension so that it KEEPS the same track width, but gets rid of those ridiculous 1/2" long control arms!! Another great presentation from you!
Thanks Carmine! Yes, they did a good job!
Yes! I thought it was the Mercedes that got this suspension upgrade. Looks great on the trail!
This is an excellent video. All the tips and tricks are explained, shown, and the mods needed to make it WORK. The music is non-intrusive, dead air kills videos. Thanks for the link to Yeah Racing, and the addition of the taller tires makes it look so much better. Did they hurt the acceleration? This video is why I will buy this car. Thanks, and keep up the good work!
Thanks! With the bigger tires the acceleration is even better! Softer compound, somtimes wheelys are possible! 👍👍😊😊
Many thx for your sharing with details explanation.
I am looking forward to have such modification with my MF01 X.
Pls keep it up for your good sharing.👍👍👍
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
Nicely done. Excellent explanation and display. Thank you for uploading this.
Thank you for your good comment!
Thanks for this video. I have just ordered a MF-01X VW Beetle Rally. Looking forward to it.
Hope you enjoy it! 👍😊
It is goood to go look at 5 year old Videos... Very relevant to me now! 👍👍
I forgot just HOW good this Yeah Racing Long Arm Kit really is. And this is the first time I think, that the 90mm MST Tyres actually look BIG!! 😜 A perfect fit for these little Cars, I must find a set. Now that I have built the stock Suspension with the 20mm Arms - it's obvious that the YR Kit is almost necessary to do. It now has a TRF Racing look to it, with performance to match!!
Exactly! Always nice to modify something on these cars! 😊 Glad to hear it's finally possible for you to enjoy these things! 👍👍
Looks rich and cool!! It could be get good performance. looking forward to the film!
Thanks! Running film is on the way!
Another class video Matteo, informative and detailed. Plus you must have the best manicured hands on youtube .... lol
Keep them coming my friend, cant wait to see the next one ...... Tamiya 2CV maybe????
Thanks so much Graham! 2CV is allready here: czcams.com/video/Hl8eFYN2OJU/video.html
Ein sehr Informatives Video, Matteo!
Sehr gute Upgrades!
Daumen hoch & weiter so!😃👍
Vielen Dank Maurice!
That's a nice upgrade Matteo! Those slightly bigger tires are looking right, the previous ones were a bit undersized if you ask me :). Thumbs up!
Thank you! Glad you like it. Yes, the previous ones was more street tires.
Very good work! I'm looking forward to see it running ... :-)
Thanks, Movie is on the way...
Nice Little build matto , I'd love to see a video of your collection one day:)
Thank you!
once again another great job love the detail video and comparison between the different setups, i too have the jimney and love it, i am going to steal your idea on the red jimney and use the rc4wd mtz tires and rims they add a better scale appearance
Thanks! No problem to steal my idea, this is good!
Beautiful video!!! Excellent suspension)))
+RC383 Thank you!
Great video! For anyone doing this, here's a solution for not cutting the motor gear cover. Instead of using the kit supplied endlinks, use the "Tamiya 5mm short adjuster" 50797. They are $2.60 from Tamiya, and since they are "open", they allow installation of the cover with no clearance issues or cutting. 5:26
Ich hab mich riesig auf das Video gefreut echt toll😀
Schön! Danke Ueli!
That made a huge difference to the chassis.
Yes, it makes! Thanks!
Awesome video! So tasty and clearly shown the mods! :-) Wonderful!
Thanks Filip!
Very good explanation and excellent video !!
Merci!
Wow. That looks great Matteo. 👍😀✌️️
Good to hear this! Thanks Tybo!
Awesome work👍🏽
Thanks!
Super, wie du alles genau erklärst.
Danke, freut mich wenns was bringt! 🙏😊
You are doing a great job With these Upgrade films..easy to understand for me who is a "newbe"..thumbs up for Matteo..
Thank you so much! Very glad to hear this!
if i want to ask for you to help With problems, do i do it here on youtube or can i "meet" you on facebook?..that is if you are willing..?
jan erik skogmo mod-56 No problem, if you like you can do it here on youtube, I am more activ here on youtube.
Good to know...
Great video Matteo. Thanks for taking the time to share these tips. Can I ask what light buckets did you use for the headlights?
Thanks! These are universal light buckets from ABC Hobby www.rcmart.com/light-bucket-chrome-p-55627.html
Thank you very much for your review!
Your welcome! A good product deserves attention!
Aiii .. Matteo - jetzt sag aber nicht, ich muss meinen MF-01X schon wieder auseinanderreissen😅.. Im Ernst: sehr schön, freu mich auf Deine praktischen Erfahrungen mit dem Mod👍🏻👌🏻
Vielen Dank Tom! Auf dem Werkbank fühlt es sich fantastisch an, und die ersten Ausfahrten bestätigten das Gefühl!
danke für dieses sehr informative Video!
hab deswegen die year racing Teile für meinen mf01x - G320 schon bestellt!
Das ist super! die funktionieren auch echt gut im Gelände. Denk unbedingt daran die Madenschraube in den Kugelgelenken der Antriebswellen nachzuziehen und zu sichern.
Danke für den Hinweis Matteo!
Hab auch noch die weichen, größeren Reifen von tamiya bestellt (die mst waren leider nicht lieferbar) mit 94mm Durchmesser, hoffe, dass sie unter die Karo passen!
i enjoyed this video thanks for posting
Thanks for your nice feedback! 😊👍
nice work brother 👍 👍 👍 👍, thank for sharing
Thanks for your good feedback!
Would love to know who makes these aluminium parts please comment back thank you so very much for this video
Your accent is amazing, subbed just to hear your voice XD
😊 I never expect this... 😂 Thanks!
Hello Matteo, great video as always👍
I'm interested in this chassis, for this HR mod, and it's adjustability; I just wonder how it will do with something a little torque-ier than a Sport Tuned, and would the drivetrain handle slightly larger tires, and all the weight from the upgrades? I'm thinking favorite car of all time build, so I must know all it's secrets. Slipper clutch?
MF-01X is a small little car, with limited off road capabilities. Be careful not to overtax it. It have no slipper clutch.
TOP!!! Abgesehen dass das Upgrade offenbar wirklich eine ganze Menge bringt, sieht es auch richtig toll aus.
Muss mir gleich das neue Fahrvideo ansehen :)
Danke auch für die hier wieder mal sehr gut gezeigten einzelnen Schritte und die geposteten Links!
Hast Du einen Tip wo es das Year Racing Set zu kaufen gibt? Ich finde nur Anbieter aus Hong Kong!
Nochmals vielen Dank! Das gibts bei Tamico zu kaufen: tamico.de/Yeah-Racing-Alu-Long-Span-Aufhaengung-blau-fuer-Tamiya-MF-01X
Super - ich danke Dir!
Bisher hat mich das MF-01X eher wenig interessiert. Aber mit dem Kit und neuen Dämpfern überlege ich mir das nun auch :)
You should never super glue the servo saver to the horn. It defeats the purpose (unless you don't mind destroying your steering servo any time you impact your wheels into something).
The problem with the play that you noticed could've been fixed in a number of different ways.
1. Either your screw was too loose and simply needed tightening.
2. If your screw keeps coming loose, you could fit a small serrated or spring washer to prevent untightening.
3. Your horn screw may be too long. Find a shorter screw or file down your screw to size.
I'm also not a fan of locking diffs, but at least there is no potential for damaging anything by doing that.
Nice vids, btw. ✔️😉👍
Thanks for your feedback! First, all your tips are good but not the problem of the play. As i mentioned in the video it should be used a high quality servo for this modification. This will not be destroyed. And I used the car more as a trail runner, not a racing machine. And on the trails you have to use your steering sensible...
John the screw can be tight and it still wiggles
Looking good! The CVA's really make a big difference! the suspension set up is it the same width as the stock one or does it make it get wider a bit?
Thanks! No, the width is still the same.
Cool!
Your chassis reviews are "just right"! I'm interested in several Tamiya bodies and was wondering if there is a list of body wheelbases and chassis wheelbases, so we know which bodies may "fit" which chassis.
+elevensixty Thanks! Yes, it would be a good list, but I never seen something like this.
Nice mods. Did the suspension increase the track width? PS, you should get yourself a Tamiya Shock Pump. One of the best tools I have. Keep up the great videos my friend!
Thank you! No the width is the same. Now, I have to check this Shock Pump!
very nice , quick a try
+kazacorpora Merci monsieur!
very well explained! Thumbs up!
Thanks my swiss friend!
Hello Matteo, thank you very much for your videos. this is very interesting. Where did you get the interior for the Mercedes G320? I would be very happy to hear from you.
My Interiors are selfmade, how I do this you can see it here for example: czcams.com/video/W985ThG74do/video.html
Have just brought the Tamiya Ford Escort Mk.2 Rally RC Car on the MF01x chassis. If I buy this upgrade will I still be able to use the escort Mk2 shell? Look forward to hearing back from you. Great video 🙂
hi Matteo, how you doing chap? great video. what body mount system do you use?
Thanks Neomax, everything is good, hope on you too! I used magnetic holders from Integy: www.integy.com/st_prod.html?p_prodid=23033#.WGl6TKMlx-U
hi matteo, another great video, the upgrades really change chassis stance. it looks a bit meaner.
how much, if you don't mind, was the yeah racing 🏁 parts.
lookin forward for the running vids. 😀 👍 👍
Thanks, glad you like it! The parts are about 70 bugs
This upgrade looks good. For now I just need to get CVA shocks for my MF01X. Have you ever tried the 55mm Yeah Racing shocks?
Thanks! No, not tried yet, but Yeah Racing have great stuff!
Thanks for this information in a language that a Belg-Dutch understand.
Thanks! Yes, my bad english is for most people understandable! 🤣🤣🤣
love your videos matteo! do you have the xv01 tamiya? & if you do whats the ups & downs of the xv01?
+Mark Vonville Thanks! Glad you like my videos! Yes I have the truck version of XV-01. czcams.com/video/zubqkRR8qXo/video.html It's a interesting chassis, something between a offroad and onroad car. But both of them not realy...
Having a hard time judging by the video. I can see the improved suspension geometry, esp in relation to the angle of the axles as the suspension moves. But did the Yeah Racing long span arms increase suspension travel (or is it the same)?
Yes the suspension travel is increased also.
Thanks for the info! Keep up the great video's!
Could you make these parts for the king Blackfoot I would definitely purchase a couple of sets please comment back thank you
I bought this upgrade. It came with parts for several different chassis, and was difficult to figure out what parts were needed. It also was missing peices, had two left front knuckles and the rear knuckles won't line up.
If parts missing or no good, you can make a warranty claim...
Nice one😊 Why did you use the short end connector on the dampers? With Yeah R. set, is it not space for a longer damper?
Thanks for your great video. With the new arms, what length of dampers can I use?
Thanks! You can use the CVA Dampers mini and super mini. Of course you can use longer dampers but this needs some modifications on the damper holders.
Matteo's RC Movies thanks for your kind reply. I just ordered the Yeah Racing parts and also some Tamiya upgrade parts. Hope I can get some Active Hobby parts for the MF01X when I go to Japan tomorrow.
Great video. I'm still undecided - standard. Tamiya suspension with oil dampers and 90mm tires, or ful Yeah suspension upgrade. I've read that the Yeah long arm upgrade gives you 36% (not my number) more suspension travel, but that probably translates to c. 5mm worth of extra travel. Is this upgrade really worth it relative to the capabilities of this m-type kit? Will it significantly improve its cross country capabilities (trail not crawl)? About to start my built.
Thanks! Yes, in my opinion is a great improvement and worth the money.
Matteo's RC Movies Thanks for your reply - I've bit the bullet on the long-span suspension kit and ordered the upgrade. Looking forward to the install. Already using the Yeah shocks, which are fine. The MF01x is a very nice kit, but after upgrades it might have made more sense to get something more capable like the MST CMX / CFX. Of course rc is not about rationality :)
Keep up the good work!!
Do you have a part number list for what you used? Great video, by the way.
Thanks! In the video description you can find all the informations.
great video thanks. have nice day:)
Thanks for your good comment!
Hi Matteo, did you try the MST tires on the Jimny? I think about using them on mine, but I have a doubt for the size.
In the comparison you can see the Jimny with the 1.55 Mikey Thomson. I think this ones are limit for the Jimny.
I think it should be possible to use bigger, but I don't like it too much. Here are the 1.55 installed and the fenders a bit trimmed: czcams.com/video/NCRViRuj3Zo/video.html
Ok indeed it s enough with the 1.55 tires. MST tires will be too big. Thanks a lot for your answer. Keep doing some great work I love what you do. Inspiration for me
Hi Matteo, nice review !! :) I bought this upgrade but a have little problem with geometry. Do you use stock O-ring (black) in the Joint Cup? Its all about rear part. The Shaft Swing cant spin (horizontal shaft posicion) or will fall out from joint cup (down posicion). Thanks for any advice ! :)
No, as I remeber right I have no o-rings in the joint cubs. With installed dampers the movement of the swing is limited and so, the shaft will not fall out.
Thanks alot for your response! :). Maybe that was the problem.
Great video.
I realize I'm watching this very late. If one has a limited budget for enhancements to the MF-01X chassis (Long Span Suspension is out of the question) which one is the best to be done for offroading:
- Ball Bearings set Tamiya TA-54643,
- CVA Super mini Shocks, or
- Bigger/softer Tires
In my opinion first are better / softer tires.
@@Matteomeier Thanks for your time and reply.
Salü
Super video. Was für felgen hast du montiert? Gruss
Danke! Die sind von MST, vom CMX und CFX crawler.
I’m building the MF01x Beetle. Building with lager tires and GF-01 arms etc. Building an MF01 Xtreme 😊
Is that car body really a Cabriolet or just lookalike? ie is it possible to remove the roof and put it back?
The rear cloth roof its only an imitation, not real. It's made with a matte varnish.
Super Job. Wo kaufst du die YR Teile? Ich würde gerne ein TT-02B Chassis mit ein paar YR Teilen verbessern. Merci & Gruss aus dem BO
Danke Max. Bei www.wemushop.ch kriegt man einiges, oder auch direkt von www.rcmart.com
Hallo, eine weiter Frage: Ich verliere beim Konghead immer wieder die Antriebswelle und das Getriebegehäuse bei der Vorderachse. Gibt es einen Trick wie ich die befestigen kann, ohne das der Antrieb oder die Lenkung behindert wird? Merci & Gruss
Does locking the diff have effect on pavement?
New Video ! Yes ;-) Grüße Jimmy
Danke Jimmy!
Hi Matteo, Klasse wie immer, sag mal, kann man bei dem Yeah Kit die original Dämpfer verwenden, oder müssen dann längere eingebaut werden?
Dank dir! Nein, die Originalen funktionieren. Die CVA super mini sind auch genau gleich gross wie die originalen.
does anyone have any idea how to order this yeahracing kit here in europe??? They seem to ship only to trusted stores in bulk and i can only find it in american webstores :(
RCMart send it to europe without problems: www.rcmart.com/aluminum-longspan-suspension-arms-knuckles-performance-upgrade-tami-p-63128.html?cPath=595_744_1760
Fantastic
Thanks!
hi, nice video, the suspention kit is good for tl01?
Thanks! This fits only on the M-Chassis cars, you have to use the set for TL-01.
hi there, what brushless system would you recomment for this model?
Only a moderate one, 2s with about 3000kV
I am noticing the increased articulation of the arms, which is very nice. But will it not become a problem as the wheels now are wider/outside the body?
No, the wheels are on the same position. The mounting positions on the c-hubs is different, this makes the better articulation.
@@Matteomeier
Hallo Matteo, und vielen Dank für die tollen Informationen im vorbildlichen Viedeo :-) Nach deinem Video habe ich direkt das YR-Kit bestellt. Ich habe eine Frage zu den verwendeten CVA Super Mini Shocks: weißt du, ob die den selben, sehr kurzen Federweg von rund 6mm wie die TRF-Versionen haben? Letztere habe ich in der Originalaufhängung i.M. verbaut, und sie bieten nur etwa den halben Federweg im Vergleich zu den Plastik-Original-"Dämpfern".
Danke für dein Lob! Also bin da auch nicht sicher, aber ich denke die CVA Super Mini shocks haben den selben Federweg wie die Original Plastik Dämpfer. Ich kann mir aber vorstellen das die Alu-TRF Dämpfer weniger weg haben.
Und danke für deine schnelle Reaktion. Stutzig macht mich: die Plastik-Rutscher haben eine Auge zu Auge-Länge von 55mm, sowohl die TRFs, als auch die CVAs kommen nur mit dem verlängerten Shock end auf 55mm, sonst haben beide 51mm, also gleich kurzen Dämpferweg?! Wenn das Set da ist, werde ich die YR 55mm Dämpfer probieren und kann gerne eine Rückmeldung dazu geben.
Ok, ja bin gespannt drauf!
Also, die Plastikrutscher haben unausgefedert eine Länge von 54mm, eingefedert 44mm. Die TRF (54000) mit den verlängerten rod ends 55mm und 49mm, also lediglich 6mm Federweg. Ich habe jetzt die Yeah Racing Dämpfer mit 55mm drauf, hier messe ich wieder 54/44mm. Zusammen mit den silbernen Originalfedern passt das zur Originalaufhängung aus meiner Sicht am besten. Mal schauen, wie es mit der YR-Aufhängung arbeitet.
Hatte am Wochenende gerade eine Erfahrung damit gemacht. Mein Freund hatte einen MF01X dabei mit Yeah Racing Aufhängung und längere Dämpfer. Weil aber dadurch der Ausfederweg sehr gross war und damit der Winkel, sind mehrmals die Knochen aus den Mitnehmern am Getriebe gesprungen. Könnte ein Problem sein wenn der Federweg zu gross ist. Vielen Dank für deine Infos! LG Matteo
I wish someone would make a front and like that for the king Blackfoot I would definitely buy it please comment back
Great job there, Matteo. Those black rims, are they also 52mm diameter? Will Tamiya tires fit on them?
Thanks Tomas! Yes, the tires in the video are the original tires from the kit.
Aha, ok, but the rims/ wheels are different from the stock, right?
Yes, these are from MST, the bigger tires at the end of the video are also from MST (from the CMX)
Thanks
Matteo, will 1.55" rims clear the Yeah Racing suspension?
Yes, this should be no problem.
+Matteo's RC Movies thank you!
Gutes Video! Matteo, was sind das genau für Felgen auf der G-Klasse (die schwarzen mit den 8 Löchern)?
Danke! Das sind die MST Felgen vom CMX Bausatz. www.rc-mst.com/product_info.php?class_sn=24&class_sn2=102&sn=2644
Vielen Dank für die Antwort, Matteo! Mache weiter so!;)
Hi. Please can you tell me what Shock Absobers you have fitted. Thanks very much.
Tamiya Mini CVA Oil Dampers.
Hey Matteo it's Ed bothering you one more time lol. My question is will the yeah racing long arm MF-X01 KITfit the Beetle rally body style with out sticking out of the body? Thanks bro bro . P.s got my BIGWIG finished no problems. Thanks for the reply.
I think this with the Beetle should be not a problem. Because the Yeah Racing kit changes not the wheelbase and width...
Super Video. Es gibt aber auch Diff-Locker zu kaufen. Die hab ich im verbaut.
Danke dir! Ja das stimmt, hab beim CC-01 auch solche verbaut.
Seems like a lot of people are having problems with loose Tamiya servo savers. Everyone seems to have a different solution. I tried super glue on my grasshopper but it eventually gave out. I saw a guy using rubber tubing around the outside, however, I've found another way to fix this problem without much effort. I use a leftover self tapping screw from the Tamiya kit and a small washer in place of the machine screw that comes with my servo. It will hold the servo saver together just fine. BTW, I noticed a Futaba S3001 servo installed. I've been using S3004 servos without any problems so far but I hear that the S3001 has better "precision". One of my Tamiya's came with a S3003 servo and I feel like it doesn't always center properly. Im just wondering if the S3001 servo is really worth the extra money? 🤔
Thanks for your good feedback and tipp! I do not know the differences of all these Futaba Servos, sometimes I use a 3001 because my hobby store have it for good price.
Do they make these types of parts for the king Blackfoot please comment back I am very curiou It would be nice thank you for this video I hope you come at back to me and let me know one way or the other
Hi there can I ask why you would lock the diff what benefit would u get from this others than stripping gears
It's because of the grip on loose ground and off roading. With open diffs, if one tire have no ground contact the traction is away. But for on road is better to let the diffs open.
Very cool
Thank you!
My friend and I used the YR suspension kit. It works very good. I was surprised you said the instructions are good. We thought the instructions were not very clear. We have put together many cars and were able to figure it out. I do not think this modification is for beginners because the instructions are not very clear.
Yes, you're right. But in my opinion beginners should not do this modifications. Better to let it in stock condition and earn some experience. Later, some modifications are easy to do.
Cool! I am glad you agree with me. Awesome videos! Did you know that Tamiya is about to release a Citroen 2CV car for radio control. I hope you can do a video on that one. Kit number is 58655. It will be on the M5 chassis. I also have 1 video on youtube. Not as nice as yours, if you want check it out. Thanks and have an awesome day.
Yes, I already have it and in build process! instagram.com/p/Bhb-XPGgESD/?taken-by=matteos_rc_movies
Wow! I would like to get one too. This car was in a James Bond movie. Can hardly wait for Tamiya to release the kit. I have to admit you do not see this car in the USA.
Schöne Teile gefällt mir.
Danke, freut mich!
Hey Matteo, how did you lift the actual body up of this chassis? I just bought an MF-01X Mercedes G 320 and my body was rubbing on the wheels - I had to use body spacers but even then it is very close. Thanks for reading and thanks for making the video.
Hey Denis, with the stock body mounts is very easy to lift it with the clips. Maybe you need new body posts.
Matteo's RC Movies I think i do. Mine is at the top height. I plan on having a friend 3D print extenders for me. I am also using the clips where it seems you are using a magnet mount which might account for more height of the body. Thanks for your reply!
The MF-01X doesn't come with oil shocks or ball bearings in the kit?
It's disappointing to see the diffs are not sealed. This is 2016, all RC diffs should be able to hold oil now.
MST makes aluminum servo savers that fit very tightly and are adjustable. You should consider using one on your truck. I use them on all my Tamiya cars.
+Shawn Elliott Yes it comes without ball bearings and oil shocks. But please consider the price of this kit! I had no issues with the diffs on Tamiyas. It's hard to believe a diff can hold the oil inside... Thanks for the tip with the servo saver, I'll check them!
***** You're right, those diffs definitely can't hold oil. That is disappointing, because I like tuning my diffs with oil.
The MF-01X costs $200 in the US. That is the same price as a Traxxas Slash. The MF-01X looks nicer, but the Traxxas Slash has sealed diffs and metal gears.
+Shawn Elliott That's true, I thought on the kit price (95.-) but we have to compare the RTR versions 😃
In the US, the MF-01X kit costs $202. I don't think there is an RTR version here. www.tamiyausa.com/items/radio-control-kits-30/m-chassis-cars-36350/rc-suzuki-jimny-jb23-58614
Tamiya products are very expensive here. I have several XV-01 cars and they cost about $600 including upgrades.
+Shawn Elliott That's crazy. But the prices on Tamiya USA website are catalogue prices not the price on the market. Found the same in USA for 120.- www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXFKEP&P=ML
And they have also a RTR Version for 290.-
www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXFYPB&P=7
But from Hong Kong the price is the lowest: www.stellamodels.com.hk/58629-mercedes-benz-g320-cabrio-wesc-torque-tuned-motor-p-9713.html
Does anybody know what tamiya buggy wheels and tires will fit the MFO1X and clear the rear hub carriers? I have a MF01X that I built with rear wheel drive and I want to put a set of tamiya spiked buggy tires and wheels because they are wider and will give better grip while still being more scale looking than other options. Anyone know which kit wheels could fit it? Buggy champ? Hotshot? Hornet? Grasshopper? Plasma edge? Sand viper? Frog?
As first you need to check if the wheels have 12 mm hex. Older Buggy wheels like the Hotshot Frog and Buggy Champ have other systems and these will not fit directly to a modern 12mm hex
@@Matteomeier yes this is what I am afraid of!
If i may ask, what tires are you using for the jimny?

No, sorry I have nothing. But try it in the web. Some asian manufacturers builds upgrades for many cars. www.asiatees.com/

When I lock diffs, I simply use hot glue. The diff is locked, and you can simply remove the glue if you wan't the diff to be open again.
Very good tip! Thanks! 👍😊
