Chad's Rampage MT 2wd

5/23/2012

I just received these pics from Chad of his sweet looking Rampage MT. Chad says "I have many mods on my truck and probably the best thing I ever did was take all the front shafts out and make it 2wd, made a HUGE perfermance difference, and still drives,turns,stops,handles perfect. Wondering why more people don't do it..."

I'm not sure why more guys don't run in 2wd Chad, I think it could make for a more fun vehicle once in a while...what do you guys think?

These are the few mods that are done so far. 30cc with walboro 813 carb, 8k clutch, k&n intake with torquer velosity stack, custom header with tuned pipe. I removed the front shafts and front diff so that it is now 2wd with front wheels free spinning. Made a HUGE diffrence in performance, took at least 40% of the drag off the motor. Now the truck litteraly hauls ass and still drives, stops, and handles perfect! It will literaly bawl the hell out of the rears from a dead stop on concrete. Just received my custom full mod stroker 29cc today and the dominator side pipe should be here this week. I will keep yall updated!!

Is this the MT on Youtube drag racing a dunerunner in a parking lot?

No its not, I haven't seen the video that your talking about but I definatly check it out. As far as drag racing, I built a baja 5b with a DDM bigbore kit and sevaral other mods and my rampage is every bit as fast if not faster from a standing stop...

My new Chrome DDM stroker motor got here yesterday and the dominator side pipe should be here any day, plan on break in/tune hopefully this weekend, should be good for around 7 1/2hp, I will post video on utube and put the link on here when its ready.. plan is to need a wheelie bar, if this motor/pipe combo don't do it then I'll throw some NOS at it. Nitrous express has a very nice adjustable system..

I was told running two 2wd will stress your component toward the rear (depending on your setup). Not only that you will lose braking to the front wheels. If you beefed up your drive train then I don't see why not?

Now I'm running a stroker zenoah and so far the drive train has held up perfect. And it still stops very well with rear only. (No diffrent then a baja)..
