Guys finally some progress!
First of all i have disassembled the truck and get a few parts cleaned to start the project.
As i have decided the chassis will be vertical design so to form the base of chassis i have used two aluminum stripes (4mm * 1 in * 22 in) on both sides and used the original mountings given on differential and shock tower cover to mount them .In this way the width is same as of the original chassis which gives me advantage to mount the servos holder and the gear box easily .After mounting the aluminum stripes on both sides i have mounted the engine and to do this properly i have decided to support the engine from both rear and front end to give it a firm mounting .On the rear end i have used aluminum bar (10mm * 10mm) to hold the engine while mounting them on the engine plate(The aluminum plate on which the pull starting bucket is mounted) and another piece in between the chassis to mount these bars and give chassis more hold and strength.Similarly on the front side i have used aluminum stripes (4mm * 16 mm) and mounted them on the aluminum bar and then on the chassis as shown in the pics.
