E-maxx Motor Mount???? - 03.19.2006, 10:47 PM

Hi all, I am building a FLM E-MAXX with a BL setup and 1 speed trans. I am using the stock motor mount and it looks crappy. Is there a aftermarket mount that I can mount the motor and esc on and it look cool ?

Thanks Squee, I have seen those. You would think someone would make a motor mount that you could mount your ESC on and would look good. Maybe this would be a good project for Dafni or Mike????

I would like to see the motor on the other side like the gmaxx. I think that would be nice.


Peace!

You would think that with all the people that are putting bl setups on their e-maxx's that someone would make a mount that the ESC could be attached to. :032: :027: :032:

actually some company makes a mount for a hacker controller to mount on the spare side but most people dont use it because it sits rather high.

I bought one off e-bay but it don't fit right. It looks ok but you still have a stock mount with an add on ESC mount. Why not make a 1 piece mount that looks good??

I believe this is what squeeforever is talking about:

I just ordered one, but it's still on its way to me. Hopefully it works okay...

This mount is made by Xtreme Maxx (the words were added for another thread, its the only pic I had uploaded). I dont know for sure if you could mount this on a FLM chassis, but if its a flat surface behind the tranny you would just have to drill 2 holes so you could bolt down the motor plate end of the mount. The other end uses the chassis to rear bulkhead screws, so its almost a universal fit. I could probably fit it on a stock chassis with a little dremeling.

EDIT: heres the link: https://www.ssl-stormerhobbies.com/c...=ns&pn=XTR1004
