Idk if the flat part of my motor shaft doesn't go in far enough but I actually had to do this to push my motor back alittle bit.
Could this just be an issue with the motor shaft or are there pinion gears that arent so lengthly?
I run a speed passion 17.5 sportsman series motor:

Basically I have the spacers in between the motor and motor mount.
Thanks
I had the same problem with a RevTech motor. You can use a Dremel to extend the flat on the shaft. Try not to get filings in the bearings.
