Firehammer MT vs Buggy width?

[drbelleville]

Hey guys, just got a buggy converted MT from Don, and was wondering is there a difference between the buggy arms / dogbone lengths vs the Truck?

 

[pipeous]

yes, mt arms are wider than buggy. buggy arms are the same as fg arms

 

[drbelleville]

how much wider? I take it then the dog-bones are longer as well

The dog bones for firehammer: Firehammer MT are 108mm long Firehammer buggy 96mm

So this means that the Firehammer MT arms and dogbones will fit my Smartech Spider/Traveller? I had a idea of making it a little bit wider...

 

[drbelleville]

yes they will fit your buggy to make it wider, don't forget all the parts, such as arms, upper arms and dogbones.
