Bryan... That's where my ESC sits for the most part and it's fine. My truck looks essentially just like this still, but not for long. It'll be more dialed in, detailed, and custom. But I have NEVER had a problem with my ESC sitting up that high. I prefer it actually. Since the stock bodies tend to allow for more splash up and debris, I'd rather not have my ESC sitting directly on the chassis. Maybe it would be ok if I had a better body though?





Bro... Yers sits on the chassis now that you've gone XXL, but it didn't when you were running the LST2 right? I'm pretty sure Bryan's is an LST2 no? And btw... are you ok with our "new design" then? Because the ESC will sit up in front of the rear tower like mine does now. You run aftermarket bodies too, so that probl helps.

MC... I'm not bashin' Neu whatsoever... just in case you were speaking to me. I was talking about Bro owning his for less than three months and having a receipt... and still having to fork out $50 to fix it when the problem was a bad bearing and rotor? That to me is disappointing to hear. If I smoked a motor and it was clearly "my fault", than I would expect to pay to fix it, warranty or not. But if a motor just dies while under warranty, you'd think that the word "warranty" would mean something huh?

Then again, maybe the policy is different for a Neu refurbed motor? Not sure if either of yours were or not. But either way... I would assume that Neu woudl take care of you either way. I can't think of any other brand of motor I would rather run to be honest! They are the best!
