If it's not a perfect fit, you might be able to get it to work. It will all depends on how much wider the two plates are then the Savage.

I saw finedesign just uses motor clamps. Not a real mount per say....

Yeah. They blow.

I do like the battery trays though that I need as well. But mine have to fit two 4S's....would be nice if some company made these.

They would be simple to make yourself, or I could make them for you.

Hey man, just stay away from those trays, the al that FD uses is very weak, and they just scream of CHEAP... I bought 2 of them and was not impressed, plus it took them 1 month (to the day) to get them to me...

Well all I need is two tray's to be able to hold and protect a max of 2 X 6S batt's and I can add fillers for the smaller batt's.

how do you make the mechanical brakes work in this setup? that is without using the third channel, I plan to keep the reverse on it as well.

Use a Y harness for your ESC and the brake servo.

Have you looked at the long versions of the 6S lipos packs JZ? The CEN's chassis looks long enough to fit one on each side. That way you will keep them as close as possible to the chassis. The only problem is that you'll have to make the battery holder yourself.

Why not shoot MonsterMike and email about the motor mount that you require and see if he is willing to make one up for that truck. Yea he is a little bit busy these days with some other projects, but you won't know if you don't ask. Just a thought.

I loved my finesdesigns lst2 conversion(made a few modifications to make it bullet proof) But over all it was a good product. Now him as a bussiness man, horriable! I have lost about $450 total and it took me over 1 year to get my esc from him! The lack of standing behind his warrenty is what finally stoppped me from going there.

Too, too funny. First you reccomend the fd mounts, then you say, "Yeah. They blow." You, sir, are the biggest post whore I know. I love ya for it though!

(don't get mad about the post whore comment, rather, call me out on the many hypocricies I live by)

Motor mount appears to be taken care of now. Just need battery trays to house and protect my 6S lipo's.
