Shaun, <br /> After modifying the pilot or cutting off the front coupler mount on the Athearn chassis, the newer spur gear drive Tyco shell will fit right on. The older worm drive Tyco shells will need some mounting lugs and tabs ground off the inside of the shell and the slots cut out for the Athearn mounting tabs. Either way it's not that difficult.
