The side to side is not the issue most of the time - its the up/down relationship - this is cured by lowering the chassis - you'll find many ways to fix that on this forum - as stated above - just move the tranny over as far as you can & drill some new holes in the skid

I know of a company that is working on developing axles with offset differentials, just like the rock buggies use in 1:1 comp. This would eliminate what you are speaking of here, as well as be the ultimate in ground clearance.

I couls see moving the rear pinion over, even the front as a potential problem. I have my pinion moved up for better ground clearance in the rear and even with the 4 link, I borrow the area between the links for room went flexed out. Same with the frontespecially with the stock 3 link setup.

Better power? Forgive me for being rude but its a dang toy. Movin the shaft wont get you any more power. If you want power then get a real 1:1 rig.

Its probably not a good idea to come on this site and start bashing rc crawling. (if you want more power try a 3cell lipo)
