My impressions were that some folks believe it would bolt right up to their E-Maxx or E-Revo without needing a vehicle specific mount and that's just simply not the case.

The post I made about gearing with a 2200kv motor is something for anyone to take into consideration when thinking about going with a center diff in a vehicle that originally had a tranny to aid in gear reduction. I have a center diff E-Maxx with a RCM mount and have that problem myself with gearing and I have 13:43 diffs. The stock diffs on an E-Revo or E-Maxx will only exacerbate the issue of having to go to very small pinions when trying to gear down.
Yes and everyone knows that once you upgrade your system to improve the power output that the stock diffs just will not hold up no matter what the upgrade is. This is not new info for anyone on RCM.
