| Rig Specific Battery Relocation Servo Bumper Clearance
What is out there for battery relocation and servo mounts where I could still mount my front bumper as shown in the pics. I do not want a rear mounted battery either. I need the front bumper tucked up tight to keep the look I currently have. I hate how the rig leans hard to the passenger side when side hilling or turning fast (it doesn't do it to the driver side). I feel like it is the battery location doing it. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |

I thought about going back to that. What about this setup? I could easily grind the whole front of that bumper plate down to be flush with the front frame rails https://images.app.goo.gl/dE9adh1RqvpbTYMy5 Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk Last edited by sawhead; 10-26-2019 at 06:48 PM. |

Using smaller batteries will do quite a bit to improve performance. I dont buy anything over 2200mah. I keep an extra in my back pocket. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk |

| Re: Rig Specific Battery Relocation Servo Bumper Clearance I agree. It seems every time I buy a battery, it's smaller than the last one(s). I've been running 1550mah and 1800mah lately. |

Yeah mine are 3000 and i will go smaller as i replace them but will still stay at 2000 at the smallest. Even at that, i want to relocate still and have my front bumper snug up against the frame rails. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |

Got it to work out as planned. Took a little trimming on the battery tray and the front portion of the servo mount as expected. Turned out exactly how i wanted it to. Kept the bumper tucked and for the battery relocated. I am happy. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk |
