Looks like mike has a couple of kits that would fit your needs (especially since he is now selling battery trays)...maybe the RC8 or the Xray Truggy?

I am in the finishing stages of building my Jammin CRT...it was easy...but I had to use a dremel and cut-off wheel to cut the servo plate. I think Mike's RC8 and XT8 kits come with new servo plates...and probably wouldn't require anything more than assembling like a normal kit.

Battery mounting is the most difficult part.

Cornolio, if you would like, I could build it for you. I love converting em. :) I have most any tool at my disposal, so its not terribly difficult for me.

Unfortunately no, I don't. All I have now is my Bomb-proof Products LSP and my E-Revo. Oh, and I'm building a E-Maxx with a BPP Racebomb chassis.

I think the LSP would be a GREAT way to go. There are a TON of mods you can do to it to make it hang with the Mugens and Xrays.

For a truggy conversion, the LSP specifically you'll need:

Kyosho plastic spur
batter mount
motor/esc combo
motor mount
UBEC

Thats the majority of the stuff you'll need. You already have the batteries...

Mines actually not a homemade conversion. Its more comparable to the Gorillamaxx G2/G3R chassis as compared to a standard Revo conversion. This is the chassis. Except mines CF. They only never made it to production. Pretty much a prototype. Only made a few. They were gonna go with the design, but the cost was to great (~$1000 for rolling chassis).
