How radical are you thinking about getting? There seems to be quite a bit of real estate on that chassis. Any thoughts to maybe moving the center diff back a few inches and offset towards the batt side, that flips the motor around too, and you could bring it and the battery closer to the center line of the chassis?

There seems to be some space around the nitro motor mount holes where you could fit the CD in. Makes mounting the rear brace a bit trickier tho. F brace could move to other side of driveline, which is fine as the brake servo goes back w/ the CD, and there may be space in front of the motor. Just a wild thought. GLWTB.
