So, after those were all gone, I began checking out exactly how I am going to mount my shifter.

I'm a bit stumped right now. I can't machine those cool mounts out of aluminum like dafni did, so, I'm open to suggestions. Right now I'm contemplating using parts of the steering assembly from the e-maxx to cut with the dremel as they need to be to run the screws through betwen the chassis and servo, essentially doing the same thing as dafni's mounts. This is going to be no easy task though, not to get right anyway.

I have access to a small amount of plexiglass, and am not a bit above using scrap plastic from the leftover bits of emaxx chassis, or using household stuff (bottles, caps, markers, etc.). I just need this to be funtional, I'll make it pretty down the road.

And please, no posts telling me I should just ditch the 2 speed and shifter and go single speed. I've weighed my options, and I want this to be 2 speed. I like shifting, and for my own reasons it is staying 2speed. Thanks.

Make you're life easier and ditch the 2 speed and shifter and go single speed, unless you like breaking your tranny.

HAHAHAHA!
