Interestingly in some pictures in the Kyosho Catalog the original Mid seemed to have such a block on the rear but it never seemed to make it into production or maybe it was on early kits?
I dont think captured blocks will be good for the mid. i broke a rear gearbox becuase i used such a method. The e clips are there to prevent the rear arms from breaking off rear wards. This happened to me before while i was negotiating a 1/8 off road track. What happened was the rear arm mount came off from the gearbox, with the 2 screwes attaching the mount to the gearbox, with the plastic material still intact around the Screws! If you read my blog you will find pictures there. So best to keep the e clips in.
