The MBX7TR uses the E2129 front upright which has a trailing axle position to improve overall steering and the steering Ackermann plate from the 7R buggy is also included in the 7TR to add more adjustability. The servo saver spring was also update to the E2316 to improve the precision of the trucks steering dramatically while the drivetrain has been changed and improved with the use of a new universal style driveshaft for both the front and rear of the truck as this greatly improves the feel of the truck on bumpy surfaces.
