FLM 1717 Converted Savage 25

Looks like the tranny needs some work before it can be called "somewhat-proof".

TVP Chassis braces and a slightly bent skid plate to acccomodate the bottom of the KD Direct Drive. Mounting it taller to allow regular skid plates would make more sense tho. Most people have the plastic brace bar to protect that area anyhow.

And as for support for the larger motor, what about a TVP brace or 2 with a little half circle cut into it, with the motors dimensions -- to make the braces hold the motor nice and tight. Would require a bit of modding though. Would need to place a brace on each side of the TVP, since there are big holes on each side. But would be doable with 4 TVP braces or so, 2 screwed on each side of the holes, 2 more screwed onto them for motor support.
