Hey, Im going to be getting a Terra Crusher this june or sooner.
I have a .25 I would like to take off my buggy and put on the TC.
Would just takeing engine mounts and all then maybe have to move the trany ahead some work?
I have heard that it is posible and you do have to move the tranny ahead 3/8 of an inch forward. Then again I have also heard that you cant.
If you can would it just be easier to buy a .21 conver kit?

im not sure if this helps you, but i fabricated a custom engine mount for an old crappy truck i have that i dont want to spend any more money on.
i got a pice of aluminum block stock from a project im getting into (anodizing).
point being you can fit anything into anythin gwith the right amount of fabricating. just look at the twin engines trucks for that matter.
i dont knwo what your skills are or what tools you have so this might not help you, but figured i'd add my 2 cents.

Some guy said you jus have to buy a longer shaft and drill 2 holes in the stock TC chassis, but it jus depends on your skills.. Id say get the .21 conversion, save yourself the trouble and the worries of ruining a chassis.
