The 36mm tekno mount I have has the 4 m4 thread holes placed in a square pattern, 34mm apart on both sides. If the slots for the nitro mount line up with those specs, then you should be able to use it. Problem is that it will sit too far back from the spur, unless you use the tekno clutch adapter and a clutch setup to make up the space.

34mm would work.. clutch huh, so many options yet so limited lol

That really depends, if you're still using the 2 speed clutchbell type setup & the gears line up nicely next to the spurs all that the mount would need to do is slide from back to front (of the truck) to adjust the mesh. Just like the nitro motor mount does.

The nitro motor mount doesn't move any other way apart from the forward/backward movement up to the transmission & to & from the tank.

I know a guy here that bought one & I want to see if it'll suit my truck & clutch set up. If so, giddyup(!!):mdr::party:, I'm buying one.

By the way, is there a pic of these plates?

I just measured the screw holes from the nitro motor mount still mounted to my motor & they are not even close to being the same distance. Maybe these plates will solve that issue??

Im hoping to have one of these to test these weekend. With a Neu 1515 1y in my lst2. The guy I am getting the mount from is one very smart DUDE.

That is slick! This Dude needs to get with Mike about selling these on RCM. That would be an awesome compliment to Mike's already nice array of conversion parts.

Let us know how that goes. I was going to make my own mount for the aftershock, but time is always against me...

Yeah the dude is who I was talking about in my 1st post, didnt want to come out and say it. His mount will be sick, and the 1 speed hubs are great. Theres 5-10 conversions going on just here another 10-20 on that site. Mike needs to make stuff like that or get into an lst2 conversion collusion with him :lol: !!

Yeah, just to clarify for everyone, I'm one of Mike's biggest fans and always recommend purchasing from him first. If he had an LST motor mount or one speed hub I would already have ordered one from him. As far as I know, TDR racing(TheDude) is the only one making the Hub and developing a mount; just sharing the knowledge.:yes:

mind made up
 

ok guys well i have decided to go with the lst rather than the muggy

i have orderd the impakt rc motor mount and mikes 2 speed adapter

i will probably fab my own battery tray i will try the motor mount out but will probably have t fab some thing up to get it to work right but when it all turns up i will let you no how it went and get some pics up for ya to check out
cheers for ya advice
now i just have to weight :whistle: :whistle:

dudes engine mount
 

hi guys had a look at my truck now thinking that the engine mount fron impakt wont fit has anyone tried the motor mount that dudes made on a lst yet and the single speed gear hub
whats the quality like
ease of use
ease of mounting
cheers

the motor mount isn't out yet, The Dude uses the Captain as a tester, that is why he is expecting one. Otherwise I have one of his single speed hubs and they are great. Definitely recommend it.

i received it today will test fit it tonight and run it tomorrrow. Let you guys know what is up. how it performs.

hot diggity, were rolling now. fingers x'ed GL :great:

ok guys has any one put the emaxx gearbox in the lst if so do you need to change the gearing i have a emaxx chassis plate and gearbox i could bolt up to the lst chassis
but what would the best gearing be to use i do have the strobe slipper and the ofna spur that i use on my bl revo would this be any good and what size pinion would you recomend

You could...
 

I did this, it works with some mods to the LST chassis, the gearing is ok. The maxx box in stock form won't hold up well if you're running any serious power though.
