Ah, I didn't flip the belts nor will I space the lipo off the chassis. With the ppd tray and lipo weight taped to the lipo, I am very close to balanced and close to 1500g. I always try to run to ROAR spec, even at a club even that doesn't tech. My motor is shoved in some, but not much. I try to keep it balanced with the weight as inward as possible on both sides. For fun Ill take pics of my finished setup later this week. (As long as the guys wanting paint from me don't hussle me too much ;-)

Thanks everyone for informing me on the molded in toe. As far as the hinge pin, I don't expect it to roll freely. I've made sure to ream the inner hinge pin mount, and ream the rear hub as I've read on the Schumacher site. My arms fall freely as does the whole assembly.
