never tried but it should be fine , as the esc is unlimited you should be able to get a pair of quite low turn motors in there . :)

no worries ,

if you run 2x 14 in parallel as per the pic the esc will see a 7 turn load , with sport tuned the esc will hardly break a sweat , do watch the motor temps though as the clod is quite a heavy old beast and with the increased pinion size they may get a bit hot , i think it will be fine ,

have fun shredding :D;)

I run 2x Super Stock RZ motors in my Twin Detonator on a single Ripmax No-Limit ESC and the temps never get above luke warm so you should be fine. If you get motors with removable end bells you can even back the timing off if temps do climb too high.

Do make sure you use decent connectors throughout though (deans or similar) as current draw will be fairly high.

If i was to fit x2 stock rz motors would be best to drop down to one under stock tooth pinion size?which would be 14t

and also what pitch is the pinions for the jugg?they look same pitch as hornets,wild one etc etc

Yep drop down a pinion size to keep the motor temps down. I would actually use BZ motors or failing that TZ as they are better suited to off road applications due to the stand up brushes giving slightly better torque with only a slight sacrifice in max RPM.

Banzai sell these motors dirt cheap, just don't order multiples in a single order as that will send you way over the £15 customs limit. I usually put several orders in along side each other and choose the super cheap £2 delivery option.
