- How far off would the gearbox's brace/tab be to matching up to the chassis brace?...

We've all seen "hack jobs" in everyday life. The RC world is no different. There are all kinds of RC parts that are "close enough", then made to work by slight modification. I'm just curious to how close the two gearboxes are when having them sitting side by side. How much wiggle room there is for a person to work with, or how much modification/hacking/jerry rigging that needs to be done.
