CRT.5 build - would opinions on my setup choices

Oh yeah - one more complaint (or whine) is that with the motor mount and servo setup it is impossible to change a pinion w/o first either removing the servo or removing the whole center diff assembly.

You just can't get to the bottom screw with the servo in the way.

Yeah, that does suck. I thought about making some sort of quick-release for the servo since that would probably be easier to remove quickly than the CD.

Just fyi - I meant to say BATTERY mount. Mike's motor mount rocks!

"Here's a few pics of what I've done so far. The motor mount isn't great (just some L-arms from Home Depot cut to fit along with velcro tape and velcro straps - but seems to be holding well for some trial runs) - I just don't have the tools or the skilz to do some of the sweet work some of the guys here do."
