Here's my original layout, I started with a FT RC8t & a AE e-conversion. I didn't take a pic before tearing it down, so a pic of me SC8e will have to do, basically the same thing.



First thing I did was flip the diff around to check for clearence.



I tryed flipping the riser around too, but that ain't gonna work. So the diff riser & chassis needed clearencing. Unlike Brandon & some of you, I got no mill so I just used the trusty 'ol dremel & grinder.

First the riser.



Then the chassis.



That's done & the spur has all the clearence it needs.



Now, on to getting the motor mount in...............
Why did you grind the plate and chassis? Mine fits fine with the plate and elite mount???
