Brushless Associated Monster GT

[Batfish]

Has anyone seen/heard about someone converting an MGT to brushless?
I picked one up a couple weeks ago from a friend and am quickly re-confirming my dislike for nitro. I had it tuned just great and ran 3 tanks through it one night...the next time I tried to start it, it wouldn't start without adjusting everything again. :C:
Darn nitro...not to mention, I suck at keeping them going :)

From what I've read there are only 3 weak points to the MGT from stock:
1 - Engine needs to be upgraded; the stock engine is good and reliable, but not fast enough to be competitive. This one's irrelevant if I go electric, plus the guy I bought it from had already put a .26 in it, upgrading from the stock .21.
2 - Lower arms can break easily. This seems to be from the first factory run, which is where mine came from. Replacement arms are as cheap as any other truck, so that's not a problem at this point.
3 - Center CVDs wear relatively quickly. This is the only one I have any real concern with. Although I doubt they fail quick enough to bankrupt me, I'll still take a look to see if there's anything I can do to help keep them in good shape longer.

Has anyone heard anything else regarding faults with the MGT?

If nothing else, it will be an easy experiment in stock form since the gearing is already mod1. I figure I'll un-bolt the engine, exhaust, and fuel tank then see what room I have for batteries, and strap in a motor, ESC and battery packs. I'm sure I'll have to do some work with the tranny, but I'll see what it's like in stock form first. It'll also be a benefit to get the forward-only conversion kit as well, I'm sure.

Thoughts?
