hiya
first i took everything off the chassis except for the bulkhead and the motor mount, the scribed the shape of the bulkhead onto the motor mount from the spur gear side, then i filed it to shape, then i measured the centre of the bulkhead holes to the centre of the orignal motor mount holes, drilled and taped them.
once the two parts were mounted it was a matter of useing the right sized drill to drill down the bulkhead through to the motor mount, i then tapped/cleaned up the thred,
thats the hard part, then it was a matter of flipping the diffs, and moving the lipo tray out about 6mm to allow for the front belt now being closer to the battery.
