Default Fracture V8 rc4wd question.

Ok, I was thinking about getting one of these and was wondering where the wires from the motor goes to?

I would guess they would end up coming out the front around the timing chain & water pump area.... Ultimately looking like radiator hoses.

But that is just a guess, I have never seen one installed before.

x2. Or better yet, heater hoses so they route into the firewall

ya, those are good ideas, but if you look in this picture...it doesnt have any wholes in the front. Maybe I should email RC4WD?

Just studied that picture a little more, if you look at the exhaust there looks to be a hole? You think thats where they come out?

the one I bought It worked well to slow with a 55t novak in it, I put a 35t in it and took off my finger nail and its still sitting in the box of repair truck crap,"not the finger nail" but it does come with mounts and just a heads up, as the pictures above shows it was made for a rc4wd chassis, and to mount it on a axial chassis requires new brackets and a bit of bending. the fit is very snug you will need at least 2 and half inch leads off your 540 or smaller can to fit into this and have them make it out the bottom opening. the Gears and lovely detailed transfer case part was free of all burrs and pre greased, the gears look like the upgraded r2 transmission gears I got from my friend, only down side to these is that they are extremely heavy, and your motor is encased with no air to vent it.
