We would just need to agree on were/what tranny we wanted to use. Also the truck body shown does not have the same body mounts as my 5T. I'm not sure why. I have some 40 series tires if you guys are intersted in seeing a mock up of the body on some rims and tires.

What else do you need besides wheelbase?
Body width at the wheel wells would be nice, as well as the exact wheelbase.

As for the ext chassis, I would like to use the stock tranny, and move it forward so that a std heavy duty savage x wheel driveshaft could be used as the rear center driveshaft. This would create enough room to mount the motor behind the tranny, on the stock nitro mount plate. The stock lenght is just about enough for an xl length motor (70mm or so) and i would like the option to run a 1527 motor. Even with the longer rear center driveshaft the area in front of the tranny would be plenty to mount the battery, inside the tvps.

Body mounts are not really a big deal, as i can make my own.
