Your tranny is not currently mirrored. you need to take it apart and properly mirror it.

Mirrored will keep the motor on the right side of the rig and put the spur forward, allowing for the dig to sit on the left rear of the tranny


mirrored tranny with VP dig, squeezed into an FF4


and in the bodiless:

Actually, the word mirrored implies a direct reflection of stock. What you are describing is just a reversed tranny. My tranny is mirrored, and I too will have to unmirror it and then reverse it.

Fronts are 3 1/2", rears are 5 3/8" just a bit longer than the lowers. Keep in mind the plate you use and where it's holes are can affect it some.

casey I just might take you up on the name bumble bee...although bumble bee was a camaro in the movie he was very cool as with the chassis Juan built. So with that the new name of this build will be fitting BUMBLE BEE! I have some more painting to do I guess.

thanks Casey for the naming my new crawler! Keith

Ok got the skid plate drilled but I messed up on that so waiting for a new skid! so in goes the tranny With the HH 35t handwound motor, waiting for the vp dig (haven't bought on as of yet) and yes still waiting for the dig money to show up might be awhile. Axles are on,links are built it's coming right along nicely. still can't wait to crawl it.

Looks great! I would make some side panels, they protect the motor and dig whe you get it in, plus if you ever plan on comping they are a legality requirement. If just going to back it, then a protect the motor good thing to have
