I would go with the stock motor before dropping down to a 23 turn motor. The stock motor should be a 27 turn motor. I run the stock motor with either a 4 to 1 reduction or 3 to 1 with absolutely no problem with the MFU.

A high turn motor that has lots of torque will work well.i tried an 85 turn motor,it wouldn't even move so i went to the 55 turn motor and its great and with our club truck i think i put a 55 turn in.that and locked it in first gear..its slow and has torque.the 55 turn will work with your mfu

I just orderd the Tamiya light set 56502 for my trailer,but it only has brakes and blinkers
What do i need to do to get the normal lights working?
Just work with a switch or something on the trailer?

Hi Dean, Dean here.

MFC doesnt have trailer lights on all the time I think. Lights in my trailer are a bit messed up atm so unsure. only my signal lights work lol. Think the stock trailer lights work same as your rear lights on tractor do.

Great looking makeover. The green looks awesome. That is just about the same green I just painted my Globe.
