If you wanted to go through the body with the brace, it's possible if you add the front and rear bulkhead mounts. The v5 short wheelbase chassis is plenty durable with alloy braces, personally wouldn't waste the time and resources.

Nice looking rig. With TLR chassis and M2C brace, not really needed. The front body post mount has to be changed resulting in the body sitting higher. Can be done but not recommended.
Really I seen people adding them on their typhon but can’t find that post where I seen it that’s why I ask here..lol I’m thinking on send it to the moon that why…lol do you know who did that already and how it looks..

Oh I have plenty of those center brace mounts from my other rigs that I upgraded to HR ones..lol so it’s possible but got modified the body too huh..
 
With stock chassis and composite brace...viable option to consider.

 
All you need are the center brace mounts from the NOTO. They bolt right on and then you can add the center brace. As mentioned, not necessary with your setup, but you can do it.
 
I run the center roll hoop on mine for roof support and just had to lift the rear body mounts up, after seeing the above setup the brace is certainly feasible.

The issue with the thin-lightweight TLR chassis, landing on a decent rock or skatepark pipe will taco the chassis regardless of tower rigidity IMO. Might want to go 4mm ADU 7075 with +3mm center structure machined into the chassis if the moon landing could be an immovable/unforgiving obstacle.

dang bro that’s sick TLR!!😍 yeah but right now I don’t want to spend a lot I’m just wait until I bend the chassis to get the ADU stuff my friend has that in he’s Talion EXB and there quality is good even better the the EXB..lol
 
Really so you guys think I don’t need it if I’m gonna send it to the moon..lol
lol. Nah, it doesn’t matter. Lol. Land it wrong after huge air and you’ll be replacing diffs, suspension components, body shell, ripped out/bent motor mount, center shafts, outdrive components, and your two front teeth. Lol. What’s another chassis on top of the bill?
