I had planned on attaching the mount directly to the chassis, but the aluminum I have isn't tall enough. I have 1.5" and need at least 2" to accomplish it. You can actually see the cut-out I made to allow it, but the motor needs to be high enough to mesh with the spur, which means I'd have to go at least 1cm higher. As you can see, my aluminum elbow won't allow for that. Also, I did channel the aluminum to allow moving the motor up and down. That's described in a previous post :)
I plan on moving the fans once I'm sure I have things where they will stay. In the meantime, the 'fan tower' keeps them out of the way while still allowing for cooling.
The diff is held in with a little more than just the 2 screws, but not much more. I shoe-gooed the aluminum piece on the other side of the diff to the chassis. I can get at least a 3rd screw (if not a 4th) into the other side. I never bothered to mark the chassis on that side so I'll have to take it all apart to do it.
Noone has given me my drive ratio! :) Have you guys lost your touch? heh
