What is your idea? I'd like to know too so I can decide how to mount it in my SW3. If it can be done without cutting, please do show.

Jason was not using the same skid I was that came pre-drilled. So for those of you that do have the pre-drilled skid and want to keep the tranny in the stock spot this is how to do it.

I am very pleased with the performance of not only the VF dig, but the rig overall at this point. I can't say the same for my previous set-up.

Can we get a belly shot of the install? I just installed mine tonight and had to do some machining of the pede skid and added a 1/16"shim under the tranny to get the 10T Cobalt to clear the corner of the chassis. I don't have pics yet but, I'll get some if you wanna see.

Thanks for the compliments, But it is I who should be thanking you for such a well thought out and top notch chassis.

Yep. It will take a little tweeking here and there, maybee a small shim depending on your skid and how far forward you install your setup. But I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Default VF Dig and SW3

Tell you what worked for me, I shave the servo bracket. I shaved it up to the holes that mount to the case. This gave me plenty of clearence.
