What exactly made you want to open the Victor and start changing it's assembly? I'm not trying to judge but I just don't follow the reasoning of this. It was assembled that way intentionally and I don't really see what you gain by manually modifying it. Just seems like a lot of extra work at the expense of risk with no reward.
As mentioned above though, electrical components that you plan to use on your robot cannot be disassembled or otherwise tampered with. It sounds like doing so may have broken it
When you get your new ones maybe try following some
online tutorials
to make sure you have everything nailed down correctly.
