Center diff is an Ofna with 44T spur and a 15T RCM pinion. I'll be replacing the diff pinion with an Ofna 10T to lower my top speed. Right now, the diffs are buggy diffs(43/13). I'll be running this on 5S  :.
I'll be making a new chassis plate out of 7075T6 aluminum. It will be longer by about 2 inches compared to the stock plate. Here's the template I'll be using: |
Nice work on the CD mounting plate George... very clean, very neat...

If I mount it this far up it might work without a chassis adapter plate. But I am not sure it will work until I get a diff with a 44 tooth gear. It might be to far foward but I have lots of room to move it back but a adapter like litos most likely will also have to be made.
The savage xl bone is ~141mm compared to the ue 132mm mono dogbone so I am not sure if its long enough to make this setup possible but it will move the assembly ~9mm foward more which isnt much. Anybody got a center diff with a 44t steel gear they want to sell? My ofna 46tooth hyper diff is just a hair to wide.

That setup is looking good also... would be possible for you to dremel a little of the material away to facilitate the 46 spur? or would you rather not? Nice to see you could get the COG that low...
