MIP Pucks X-6 Cubed 17.5 drive system

The latest vehicle to receive MIP’s Pucks 17.5 drive system treatment is X-Factory’s X-6 Cubed buggy. The Pucks drive system is an aluminium based drivetrain system which includes aluminium diff outdrives, aluminium C-CVD bones, and replaceable plastic orange wear Pucks that take the place of the standard steel pins. This combination greatly increases the longevity of the drivetrain and most importantly decreases the drivetrain’s overall rotating mass by nearly 50 percent, making it ideal for 17.5T stock racing. The decrease in weight directly results in quicker acceleration, deceleration, and lower motor temps. Included in the X-6 Cubed specific kit are also a ball diff set including a new thrust race and a set of blue thread gel, clear silicone and MIP grease.
