The Bowhouse X-Maxx SVT Big Bore Motor Mount is a machined aluminum option that allows you to add more power. This motor mount includes holes spaced specifically for your favorite 48mm and 56mm aftermarket motors while keeping the motors mounted as low in the chassis as possible for optimal weight distribution. The hole spacing allows the use of four screws into 56mm motors, and that's not all. A spacer has been included to support the back of 48mm motors and a hose clamp to secure the back of your chosen motor in place so that it doesn't flop around when you do X-Maxx things.  

Features:
  • Mounting holes spaced specifically for Castle 1717 and 2028, and Hobbywing 5687 and 56113 series motors (NOTE: 2028 and 56113 motors require SVT Risers, sold separately - BWH-BXM-0020)
  • Use all 4 motor mount screws for added security with Hobbywing 5687 and Castle 2028 motors
  • Included nylon spacer supports bottom of Castle 1717 motor

BowHouse RC SVT Big Bore Motor Mount for Traxxas X-Maxx (Black)
Installed this into my XMAXX with an off-brand 56mm motor and a Max 6. I was very grateful for the guidance that Bowhouse gives regarding gearing and now the Xmaxx is faster than ever. Plus, with the big can and 8S, everything stays ice cold. The center of gravity hasn't even been effected that much. I couldn't ask for a better solution.

As always, Amain's customer service was impeccable.

BowHouse RC SVT Big Bore Motor Mount for Traxxas X-Maxx (Black)
I’d say this is probably the best mount if you’re a heavy basher like myself. The simple design means that the motor is well supported and unlikely for the mount to take damage in a crash. Works great on my 5690 hw g2 motor. However, I just can’t give it 5 stars due to the price. I couldn’t find anything else I thought would handle my bashing and crashing, but I just can’t believe that this thing is justified being this expensive. Maybe I’m overly harsh, but this just feels like it should be more like $70. Maybe consider making one in a natural finish or something to reduce costs a bit?

Awesome product. Loved they wait motor is keep low in the chassis. Installed with a 5687 (1100kv) 46/27 gearing. Best thing is that you keep your stock gear cover.
