I have seen a couple on here that have used an emaxx tranny to put it in the center with batts down either side. This looks like a better layout to me, but may require a custom upper deck. I had an extra center diff for the Muggy and will be using that along with front and rear Muggy diffs (closer to truggy ratio than LST2 diffs). I will likely do custom top and bottom chassis plates (maybe CF).

I have an aftershock to convert, and planned running a kb 45 10xl motor on 8s lipo. Was going to move the brake servo next to the tranny, and make a pair of battery trays. One would be between the steering servos and the tranny, and the other would be where the fuel tank usually is. Going to use a hv85 esc, so the mech brakes and the 2 speed will stay. I like the idea of the lst mech high and low gear tranny internals, I may swap that in...
