I have an idea but want to be sure. Thank you in advance.
Lay down tranny cases, lay down idler gear, lay down motor plate and gear cover, rear lay down bulkhead (if you plan to run the shocks on the front of the rear arms). That's pretty much the parts you need. Then you'll have to drill two holes in the regular RB6 chassis for the more forward waterfall brace. Then likely have to shave/grind/mill the chassis sides down more forward if you plan to run the battery sideways, along with modding the sideguards for battery clearance more forward as well. Lastly, you'll have to mod the rear front arm mount to fit under the lay down tranny cases, unless you get one f the new ones that's already milled down for clearance.
That should be all you need/need to do
