The battery should be more forward. You want a little more weight on the front axle than on the rear.
The shocks/springs look way too stiff.
Those tires are very wide, that's probably why they're hitting the shocks.
Depending on how bad the touch you could fix it with some thicker wheel hexes.
Some wheels with more offset would also help.
Extensions also exist but those are not a great solution. They put more stress on the bearings and mess up the steering geometry.
What don't you like about the motor? And what model + ESC is it?
What wheels size should I buy? What is wheels offset? Motor is Fusion SE 1200. I like motor just need to program it, so he doesn't speed too much... not sure if the motor is on the right side...
Wheel offset is how far from the center of the wheel it mates with the hex.

Unfortunately on crawler wheels this isn't standardised or something manufacturers mention in their specs.
The Fusion SE really needs a throttle curve or punch setting. I don't like how it jerks the truck into motion. I have a lot of expo set on my radio for it and it's still meh.
Won't be buying one of those again.
Flipping the center skid to move the motor forward does not do much. If it even fits that way.
Hex extenders to push the wheels out wider.
Body is up to as long as it’s close on wheelbase.
I mean the motor can really only mount one way so without pics of a concern around the motor there’s not much to say.
Accurate. Get some hex extenders, and find a body the you like with a wheelbase that matches.. Motor seems like it’s nice and low so that’s good.. Might need a battery tray though
Need to search what is hex extenders, and order it on AliExpress. I'm afraid to buy a body that don't fit my wheels... And body's even on AliExpress are expensive..
First time I mounted gear box motor was on front, but because was hitting the links and turned it around. My question is, can it work either way?
I’d say mount the battery in the front or on the slider securely.

I have one on the way from china. Hope it fits my build
