FYI, some of those are 2s and some are 3s.

What batteries were you tring to get?

First pack won't fit, as their measurements are off by 5mm on the thickness, or measurement C, I have three of them sitting here. Second pack may or may not fit, due to the width. Third pack fits, I have four of them.
 
Since i had no batteries to play this weekend, i decided to work a little on my Merv. Wheels and tires Glued and mounted,and the velcro mod to do away with the body clips, much easier to take the body on and off. Looks like HPI-GUY's Twin.

Check out my "toe" issue can't for the life of me figure out whats going on, looks like its time for adjustable tie-rods and turnbuckles.

i really like the way they look, you really should use some different nuts on the wheels, with these wheels, they dont really catch the nylon well enuf to lock them on, i put loctite on mine , and you have to drill out the wheel to accept the MERV axles but its a simple upgrade that makes the merv look tons better.


You had any problems with the Toe on yours?
 
The toe one mine is decent burnt carriers suck. My sons is not to bad. He is running traxxas dish rims with their pin tires. He runs 50/50 grass pavement and they are getting all chewed up.
 
mine is horrible, it would destroy my tires on a 4 pack day, it will have to be fixed.

The one's I'm using do, the one's in the link were 19mm wide, not sure if the battery door will close.

I think you can adjust the toe by adjusting your pillow balls to fix that. Truck is looking good buddy.
