get a lighter and heat up the screw, this will melt the locktight. then unscrew it quickly. i try to avoid cutting anything as i always screw it up lol... but its pretty clean. and yours doesnt have that pesky mount to deal with!! GRRR.. urs will be finished before mine. in regards to the body. im a good driver and ill never flip
ill just not cut as much off and mount it higher that normal. shouldnt matter if i flip it as they are alloy cells and a small bump wont hurt them will it?? a123 7s would be ok on the MMM but nothing more and you would get away with (albeit short) amp draw requirements)
BTW: do you recon i could steal a hyper 8 diff brace and diff mount? if i could i would avoid all these issues!! hooray!
