OLD NEWS

• New rear inline s-can chassis in both can drive and endbell drive - see complete chassis picture, at right.

• The new inline chassis mounts the motor at a slight angle in order to align the motor shaft with the rear axle so that standard straight cut crown gears are used to create a very smooth gear mesh.

• Axle bushing/bearing mounts designed with cutouts for seating bearings flush with the side of the rear chassis to maximize use of wide wheels/tires or to better fit wheels/tires under narrow bodied cars.

• Revised rear mount now using a tab and two mounting holes

• Easier to mount

• More control over body float
