Looks pretty good,even for a girly Jeep

If my memory serves me right you can ditch the factory battery mounts and use zip ties instead. They allow you to get the batteries just a shade closer to the chassis plates and move the body down. The problem is cuz your tryin to put a 1:10 scale body over a 1:8 scale chassis. My son wanted to put my factory Twin body on his Emaxx. Putting the 1:8 scale body on his 1:10 scale maxx looked rediculous. The maxx bumpers were now inside the body and the tires were half way inside the fenders.

If you can,try and make a tray inside the chassis plates in front of the motor and tranny plate to hold your batteries. There should be a big empty place in the front of the chassis just barely big enough to put them. You could then get your body REALLY low. I'd try that before anything. I checked on mine when I was still going to use chassis plates. Before I even finished I scraped it a decided to go tube frame rails,single motor &battery.

See what you can come up with.

First thing to do is get rid of the 5 inch wheel base!
