Six had a JT Maxx conversion. Similar concept (Lower CG), but it used a Buggy center diff, and didn't lenghthen the wheelbase like the Rix gear does.
Looks good Bill, gotta get that thing in action now.
Didn't want to start a new thread for this... Turns out, the Servo savers on the LST were stripped. I fixed that, took the shim back out, and have the new pipe installed.

Savers are in, Pipe is on, Shim is out.... Ready to go...
We can hit the skatepark on Sunday. That'll still give me some open land to "Test and Tune", and some jumps once I am happy with the tune.
