Anyone put a Neu 1515f on old emaxx motor mount? - 02.29.2008, 03:20 PM

I just put my 1515f 1.5d on an original traxxas emaxx motor mount and I have very little range of motion to set the gear mesh. If you guys remember this mount.. it has one lower hole that is fixed (its not a slot like we have on most of our conversion motor mounts) and one upper hole that is slotted so you can vary the motor's distance from the spur. Once I lock in the lower hole, I can probably move one or two millimeters towards the spur before the can hits the tranny.

Luckily I have a gear that works, but it puts the theoretical speeds up higher than I would like - and in general I really don't like being able to play with gearing.

Anyone have experience with this or a suggested fix? I'm wondering if I should try and grind out the lower hole into a slot shape?

Or does anyone want to trade me a smooth can
