Anyways, thats why I planned on going with my own tvps (if possible) that use a center diff in a truggy layout. It'd basically have a whole in the middle of the tvp in which a larger motor plate would reside.

I totally agree, A CD would def be best but can't help to think about options.

I hope to try a CD arrangment first just for simplicity, a losi 8 CD should be great starting point since they are so readily availible. Just would rather have Aluminum supports for the CD. But the 3.3 Revo mount can still be used for the application via a custom made plate for these parts to reside.
And again to quote the "Mr. Finn" the Lower the better.

So, are you going to be useing the flux front and rear bulks and assemblys or are you going for somthing a little more exotic via FLM bulks ETC ?

EDIT, Heres an idea. Since the ground clearance is high and the TVP's are so tall, what about mounting a CD and running the Motor upsidedown . Low COG ???
