Mounting the direct drive Slipperential is tricky in the G2R/G3R trucks because of the limited space between the chassis rails - it is fairly easy to overcome this on the Maxx by simply lifting the diff up, but the revo has more challenges. The only way to do it IMO, is to mount it right behind the front shocks to allow room for the motor between the front and rear shock towers. This would require drilling some holes in the lower plate for mounting the bulks, as well as likely some grinding to fit the Slipperential spur between the braces.

I know some folks want this to happen, but I am buried in a few other projects at the moment. I need to try to get better at finishing one project before moving onto the next one(have a lot of things started, but not finished). :)
