Looking for ideas, suggestions, etc...

[What's_nitro?]

Or just use end-nipping pliers to cut out half of the tread pattern. I did that with a set of Masher 2Ks... Oh my. I could have won a full-scale tractor pull with those things!

The rear support would be farther away from the front plate, but that does not really matter, as no one will be using a L can length motor in an lst (traxxas newbs who want a velineon in an lst are excluded in that last statement...)

Yup, that would be nice.

I was thinking a mount for a 5B as well, but make sure I can run my velineon on it is well, after all, it's a tough little motor.

Seriously though, a 5B mount would probably be a decent seller, and/or an e-maxx/e-revo conversion to 1/5th buggy kit like lydiasdad made.

A quad velineon setup on a 5b would be funny... I can imagine the cool parallel adapter that would take 4 2s packs and distribute them evenly to 4 vxl escs....

any chance at that mount? :D

Ok, how about some questions...

I have never owned a cen vehicle... Iam guessing that the centrer diff bulkheads on the truggy place the center line of the center diff high than the buggy ones do. This would be to clear the larger diameter spur gear. So if you used the rcm mount, why not add a spacer under it to get the correct height. Also, most of the time, Mike's mount offer quite a bit of adjustability to slide the motor away from the center diff. The 66t spur is 10mm larger in radius than the 46. The RCM mount should have enough room for a 14-16t pinion even with the larger spur...

If were to make a mount I would need the truggy... Have you contaced Mike to see if he would make a Cen truggy mount for you?

The other wy out would be to make a L braket style mount that attaches to the rear diff bulk and the chassis. I made one for my ofna gtp to fit the big kb45 motors. Just an idea... and you could do that yourself.

Yes his cen mount "would" work but i dot think it has enough adjustment when used in conjunction with the 66t spur.. 10mm extra radius is alot

yes i contacted mike, no response as of yet

So after 36 responses what it your new official project Lincpimp .. Inquiring minds want to know..

[suicideneil]

I would say finish off the existing projects before starting a new one...

Looks like a toss up between a Lst motor mount that is similar to the rcm revo mount, oooooorrrrrrrr a 200% alternator

I will give the lst diff case in a revo bulkhead a try as well, not too optimistic about that one though...

I am trying to sell most of the unfinished and unwanted stuff... Some of the other projects are progressing... You are most likely right though, I have problems.
