What do those tubes coming out of either side of the trans do?
The bumpers look like machined aluminum. I was really hoping this would be a less expensive rig than the VS410, & use molded plastic instead of the typically machined axles.

Looks like just spacers to stiffen it up.

I love the little access plate at the top, mimics where the shifter goes into the trans

The body and bumpers are as nice as the new forward mount.

I did mean that. But an extra part would have to be made. It is possible without making crazy links.

Yep, optional dig that will be out when the truck releases. They did their homework on this transmission over the last year or so.

This will be the perfect transmission if it will accept a 550 motor like the HH Trailmaster or HH Crawlmaster.

It was already stated that there is 60mm of room for motor length, so a 56-57mm "550" brushed motor will fit just fine. It seems most brushless 550 and "HD" motors are 63-68mm, so in that instance, "550" won't fit.

Overkill on a 1.9 truck anyway.
