The MN82 offers and affordable entry into rock crawling, along with a vast array of upgrade options

We stock a wide range of premium upgrades and replacement parts for the MN82 range and you can find model specific options here

Due to how MN Models share a common build, electrical, suspension and power-train parts are listed separately in our store, where you will find everything else you need to enhance your performance

For wheel upgrades, we stock a range of different sizes, widths and weights, plus a range of hub extensions to provide a fully customised driving style

In addition, we stock a wide range of universal accessories, including storage items, tools, pallets etc.

If you need help with your project, please consult the attached chart, read below or message us with your specific requirements

Suspension

The MN82 has a light chassis so only required basic suspension with standards shocks at the front and with leaf spring suspension at the rear. Upgrading the front if worthwhile and looks great, but we only recommend changing the leaf spring setup if you plan to use heavy cargo loads, due to how stiff it will become. You will need a single pair of shock mounts for the front upgrade.

Axles

Metal driveshafts and prop-shafts are more durable, smoother and the added weight reduces a top-heavy setup. The standard driveshafts are a metal replica of the original portal axles with a 4mm shaft bore, so you may need copper sleeves as provided with our metal driveshaft kits. The ball joint versions provide improved performance, but need to be lubricated with our lithium grease packs. Please use our guide to identify the shaft length you need.

Motors

The standard 280 motors are limited, particularly with heavier, upgraded models. Our 370 motors make a significant difference in speed and torque, and fit snugly within the original shells. We provide these with a full metal transmission unit, making them an easy plug + play upgrade. We leave the standard power cables detached, so you can either use these, or attach cables suitable for a customer build.
