Default CrawlerX WCX chassis

I am looking for some help with this chassis. One is how long should the links be? Two, is anyone using this chassis with the clocking plate as I have a question about mounting the motor?

Check this link, if this is the chassis, this will help.
***Wheel Base JigX*** Now available



Otherwise without a pic it's hard to help, even the CrawlerX store has none, anyway the length of the links depend on required Wheel Base, so the easiest way is to make a WB jig with two equal lengths of flatstock material (wood, metal or plastic), drill holes at the required WB distance for the axles to fit in between the jig, place the chassis in the middle and measure. As for the clocked plate no idea without a pic.

He is a good guy and always answers my e mails.

What do you need to know about the motor mount? I have seen the chassis and how it mounts, i might can help.

I made my jig and I am working out the link lengths. As for the motor mount issue it has to do with the motor hitting the transmission when trying to use a small gear. Had to go to a 27 tooth gear to clear it. I will try and put up a picture later.
