First of all I'd check the both the shell and the frame of the model to double check that there are no tabs or anything that might have broken off because this sounds unusual for a proto 2000 engine, which usually has a tight fitting shell. If there isn't anything missing or broken I would look at how the shell is attached (don't own an e-unit myself) and see if there is anyway to make a better connection. If anything is broken off simply call Life Like because they'll probably give you new parts no questions asked. If that is just the way it fits you should be able to mount styrene blocks in the rear of the shell to keep it from dropping down. As for the slipping the only thing I could think off would be to drill the frame and mount the shell on the frame using machine screws, I wouldn't recommend this method however because there probably is a better way that I just don't know because I have no personal experience with this specific model. <br />CV2652 <br />ConnottonValley2652@hotmail.com
