Here is a link to a servo mount that will allow a pack on the axle clod style. It may raise the servo too high to fit under your chassis though. http://rcpcrawlers.com/tlt.html | |

 , that servo mount looks cool, but I believe it might get in the way.

I was going to suggest the Fat-Rock/RCP mount as well. Other options: TLT battery mount? I've seen one of the locals with several 2/3A cells made into packs that fit over the steering servo. Up one side, across the top, then down the other side. What's your track width right now? |

Slow, How much do you need to trim the pede tranny to be able to get the side panel on. Just the outer screw hole or more. |

Here is a few pics to show how much room I have on the front axle to work with. I have little room for batteries What about a Lipo pack?    |

BTW, here's some shots of how the pede tranny fits in the frame First two shots are laydown, last two are vertical. The only trimming required is to take the outer screw boss off the housing, remove the two bosses for the pede hingpins, and trim the lip off the bottom of the housing so the tranny sits flat. If you plan to run a laydown tranny I'd suggest running your upper suspension link in one of the four holes closest to the frame rails (see side shots and upper rear link placement). Using holes that are farther in may cause clearance issues with brushed motors. Last edited by JasonInAugusta; 07-03-2007 at 09:20 PM. |

Maybe this will help with your batt situation... 2/3A packs mounted over and around the servo. |

Yeah... Too bad I don't remember how many cells fit like that. Slowcrawlin, that is in no way drawn to scale. Hopefully someone can chime in and let you know how many will fit like that. Last edited by JasonInAugusta; 07-03-2007 at 10:56 PM. |
