Will the New E Revo Chassis work with the original front/rear parts?

I have the RCM 1/8th Hybrid diffs in my own E Revo. They are staying with me. LOL

I have most all the parts already, transmission, drive shafts, etc.

How are the steering arms different?

Bellcranks etc are the same not sure about the steering arm(s) they look different too (no expoloded views yet, but check buytraxxas for part #'s) Other than that just the turnbuckle length really as far as the steering goes that would be different (no biggy). The tranny is the emaxx tranny with a different motor mount.

why would you want to do this?.......battery trays (boxes) suck ...imo

This is more fact than just opinion.

A better question would be if the the 3.3 chassis will work with the new ERevo front and rear assemblies.

The front and rear assemblies are the same, except a frw steering parts, why would you want to switch them out?

I meant it with a dollup of sarcasm. But really, I'll be having to take the dremel to the Erevo chassis tonight to get my MaxAmps 2s2p 8k's to fit. The battery boxes severely limit the type, size and manufacture of lipos that you can choose from.

If I could get a cheap 3.3 chassis plate and some of simple battery trays that would take, say a 3s 8000 or 4s 6000, I'd buy it.

I bought a 1515 1Y Tekno Neu to run 5s and maybe even 6s and that just can't be done with the Erevo stock chassis.
