front engine rear drive?

[MrFlob]

I have another chassis and have a project in mide but I can't find a gear box to go from engine out put to diff that lets me put the engine in the front. I have a diff just med advisw with the gearbox

Need lots more info before any suggestions.
Was the rig/chassis set up as a rear engine with standard center diff or gear box in the center? What chassis? What rear diff? Can the rear diff be flipped upside down to change the rotational output? Single speed or multiple speed gear box?
And that’s just a few questions of many when making a front mount engine on a chassis intended for a rear mount.

You'll probably have to make your own drive shaft, but a project like that just doesn't work out like it does on a real car. You'll get too much wheel spin, not enough traction and no handling at all in turns.

I have a hpi rush evo chassis and a mt2 rear diff
And I figured I need to make a drive shaft
Would a trophy truck rear axil work if I modified the chassis

Anything will work with the proper modifications, but in RCs you'd be better off keeping the rear engine/RWD.
