| Pro4HD mounting ?
I'm putting together a new Wraith from scrap. When trying to mount the trans with a Pro4HD, the motor can hits one of the link mounts before it can tighten down. Is this common? & What is the best mounting solution? Cutting down the mount or shimming the trans higher? Anyone else see this issue before or Did I do it wrong? CG3 |

Yes it's common and you didn't do anything wrong. The Pro4 HD is a 62.5mm long 550 and the Wraith was designed for a 540. You may have to cut the link mount down some and shim the transmission to keep from having to do too much of either one.

Not sure the difference between that motor and mine, if there is any... I'm running a 550 brushed Traxxas motor in my wraith. It hits the link mount. Just used a dremel bit in my cordless drill and sanded the link mount down a bit on one side. It's a tight fit but clears it without raising the tranny.
