not enough clearance to do it. It's been discussed before with some good diagrams of how it is all setup. To get it to work you'd probably have to remove a good chunk of your core support.

Thanx for posting that... I was just kicking around a similar (though much less ambitious) project. Now I know it isn't worth the time!
