Thanks guys and thanks Mike, I might alter my setup, not sure yet. This places the motor extremely close to the center diff so I may keep it this way.
Got more goodies today. My charger and other batts should be here Monday/Tuesday and that should be it. I was hoping to at least have my charger here by today or tomorrow so I could possibly run it but my time is pretty crunched this weekend anyway.
Hyperion goodies
O rings galore, picked this up for $7 a while back
Kyosho spur vs Mugen spur. As you can kinda see, the inner hole is just too big. I need to sleeve it in order for it to work. Other than that, it seems to bolt up. I just need to find some thin tube to go over my drive cup shaft. Sounds a lot like contraceptive, huh?
Center diff reassembled with 10K fluid.
Front steering plate, stock config
Same plate, flipped for motor clearance
Placement of brace in new spot. It's a little offset, but it should be fine. Still playing with this, might have to make the braces go to the center diff instead. I don't like that design, but this may not serve it's purpose in this location. More on this later.
