OK, so I got the m4 sized mount plate from tdr and got the 1717 mounted correctly. Plenty of engagement with the motor shaft into the pinion now that the rcm spacer has been removed. The motor also clears the tranny mount when running 25/63 gearing. I also assembled the rest of the truck, all I have to make is a battery tray and add a receiver. I plan to make the tray big enough to fit all of my 6s packs, so I can compare them with this motor. I plan t run the stock lst2 wheels and tires, so this gearing should do about 45mph. I am excited to see it roll again, it has been 6 months or so since I pirated the parts off it for the muggy.
