That was exactly how mine was. It's good to know that even after being converted it still jumps perfect. I'm a bit scared of upsetting the balance when I convert it.

I'm now looking for a motor mount. I measured the hole spacing on the diff mount this morning. The spacing between the 2 diff mounts is 32mm which probably isn't that important. The spacing on the holes in the centre diff mounts is 21mm. Are there any other buggies with the same 21mm mount hole spacing that mike makes a motor mount for? The bearing is a standard 8x16 too.

I should probably start another thread for this.
