I haven't yet fitted any wheelweights and I didn't trim the foam inserts in the tyres to allow them to flex a bit more. I had intended to use the 35t Integy motor that was bought for Army Truck but when I came to fit it to the new gearbox it turned out that the motor shaft was a bit too long, and consequently it fouled on the countergear. Rather than trim it down, which I feel I might end up regretting being as I do a lot of swapping of parts between trucks, I decided to fit a normal silver can RS540SH motor instead.
I don't think it did too badly. Please excuse the gaps where I fetch the truck from the top each time - there's no room to turn around up there right now and I didn't want to drive it back down the slope because the tyre cleats just get filled up with moist dirt and this then costs me grip going back up the rocks next time around.
