Looks like the LSP mount will work fine. The only thing that doesn't match up are the upper holes for the top connecting brace or whatever you'd call that. I will either need to purchase the stock center diff bulk set for LSP, or make a custom top brace that will mount to the stock hellfire one in the front, and the LSP motor mount in the back. Easy cheesy. Going to place an order for the RC-Monster LSP mount 2day :).


Brian,

What did you have in mind to secure/brace the rear end to the chassis ? I like how you've modded the rear CF piece, but I can't quite picture a sturdy way to connect that short CF piece to the chassis to provide enough strength to the stock style rear brace. Were you just going to drill the chassis for additional standoff's ?

I was thinking of a way to use some aluminum rod threaded on both ends, and bend one end at an angle to go through a hole in the shock tower, and then use a ballstud connector on the chassis for a beefy ball end connector on that side of the rod. One of those on either side of the rear driveshaft should be pretty stout. Maybe I could use some traxxas aluminum pushrod's for Revo or something. I'll have to mock up a picture if that description doesn't make sense.

Edit...

Oh yeah, I was also wondering what you had pictured as an extra brace that would go through the notch you made on the front CF tray.
