    Doesn't look like it will be a problem. My 2S and 3S packs are nearly identical in size, but my 2S packs are hard cased.

    QUICK RELEASE BATTERY MOUNT


    [​IMG]

    Our patent pending quick release battery mount is easily adjustable to fit any battery pack. The flexible rubber straps are connected to a hinge on one end and the other contains a pin that keys into a composite plastic latch that keeps your battery securely in place. There's also an integrated "lift assist" mechanism which puts the battery in the best position for removal. The lower plastic end plates are adjustable which allow you to fit any battery pack, and in most cases, two batteries will fit standing on edge. The motor position is centered lengthwise and battery is positioned towards the center for balance and stability.

    Nice!

    Is it normal for it bottom out that frequently? Do they make adjustable shocks so you can stiffen them up for street driving?

    Thanks for posting the vid!

    I haven't tuned the shocks at all. I'm not even sure that it's bottoming out, I think that might be the sound of the body moving jumping around on it that you're hearing. But yes, the shocks are a lot softer than they probably should be.:rolleyes:

    This hobbie shop in my old neighborhood had it and he offered it to be becuz I run a 3 cell LiPo battery that causes mean ass wheelies at anytime you press the throttle :laugh: this helps and makes the truck heavier...I think it normally costs like $80-100
