Guys I saw this the other day and thought this is way better than the over priced fiberglass CRP version.
For S/Tune or stock silver can the little Frog really needs one extra tooth than the 19t pinion and this is the ticket.
I just bought 5 of them . ( 2 for me and 3 for my mates Frog/Brats.

Those look like the nicest ones I've seen. If you remember to, report back on the quality when you get it.

Will do guys.
There is another adj motor mount on the bay but after I inquired about it found that it only allowed the pinion to go down in sieze. Not what i wanted. The CRP version are still out there but mighty expensive for what they are.
We have 5 to 6 Frogs running at Boodal now with just S/Tune or silver cans and with stock gearing at the max . 49t spur 19t pinion they are still a little under geared even with the 2.2 wheels. So I will give this a go.
Will give the run down once I get them.

Thought I'd chime in
I have one. Purchased it for my Monster Beetle. Installs fairly easily and works a treat with larger size pinions.
Initially I was worried about the motor sliding around a bit, but it has proven itself to be quite solid.
I'm running an original and revitalized Trinity Monster Horsepower motor with a 18t pinion. Quite fun.

I contacted CRA about this motor mount & he told me that it only allowed for smaller pinions not up as well.
Pitty as they look really good.

I placed an order with that CRA once and the hardware was just thrown in with the parts thus scratching them all.

I messaged him about it and suggested he put the hardware in its own separate bag. I don't know if he ever took my advice or not.

Update.
I bought 5 of these 3 for me and 2 for my mates with Frog's.
Came very well packaged & with all the nuts & bolts to fit it up. The only problem I had is the Frog's gear case & side plate (motor side) had to be enlarged with a dremel . To allow the 20 tooth pinion in. The short Mabuchi motor shaft just reaches the spur as it's spaced out with the plate.
In stock silver can the little Frog was a tad under geared even with the 2.2 wheels. So this is great to have the adj motor mount.
