: Can't remember about the legality of this move, but if it is, just be careful you don't hit the permanent magnet in the motor housing. That could seriously mess up a motor.

Appendix A, page A-3:

M18. The motors in the kit may not be modified except as follows:
x It is acceptable to modify the mounting brackets and/or other structural parts of the motors (output shaft, housing, etc.) as long as the electrical system is not modified and the integral mechanical system of the moving parts (bearings, bushings, worm gear output stages, etc.) is not changed or removed.

Based on this, I'd say sure...but like was said, be careful...also, it might make it harder to get a replacement quickly at the competitions if needed...
