You have the original version of the topcat/cougar rear bulkhead they did a running change on the cougar to accept packs with cells made up side by side aswell as longitudinal.

They included the later version in both the rere topcat and cougar so you maybe able to change the rear bulkhead to the rere style to make your pack work with one battery cradle.

Nice buggy- never seen anyone run the front arms back to front like that do they actually work that way round?

Is there a build thread for your Cougar? I searched but am not too savvy with the forum.

Just seen that Jeff has these now.
