I'm not 100% sure what your asking but the 97 brake assembly will be used on the Monster model just like the Marder. Are you changing out the plastic Monster plate for the Alloy gear plate?

Not sure if this photo will help:

Yeah that's the idea but I don't know what to buy to attach the brake

Dang it! This is where Pythons FG parts list came in handy. They show all the parts needed for this set up. The Fg section is gone right now.
Look in this PDF and you will see the set up with part numbers on it:

7497 is the complete brake and the 7040 is just the caliper part you need

 

[KauseKaos]

There is also the upgraded brake disk and pads for that brake set up too. Changes out the fiber disk for metal.

 

[KauseKaos]

So should I just get 7497?

 

[Bigger the Better]

Right now all you have is a stock brake set up and a new alloy gear plate right?

 

[KauseKaos]

The whole brake setup is off my marder so that leaves me with stock brakes for the MT. I was gonna use those brakes with the just the caliper. I guess I should just get the complete brake kit.

You will need the complete set and upgrade that to the metal kit if you can.

7497 will come with the parts like the top photo named OLD: http://cgi.ebay.com/FG-7497-Alloy-R...sGames_RadioControlled_JN?hash=item5d2794cde7

The upgrade from that is where you get the metal brake, fittings and pads. I can't remember the number and the craft room is under construction.:blush:

Try calling Python. They had both until the FG stuff was taken off the internet.

 

[KauseKaos]

Ill see but I just lost at fightin my speedin ticket so I gotta pay the fine. Plus I blew two servos yesterday. Just not my week so far. But ill call then to see what's the charge for the brake stuff.
