I don't think it would. Don't the LAV series (including Piranha) utilise a H drive system with separate drive shafts down each side of the vehicle? Considering that, you'd just use the existing system with the right-angle transmission. As you would be using the second last station's transmission you'd more than likely actually improve room in the troop compartment. Also, doesn't the last wheel station turn to improve the turning circle? Might be wrong on that but if it does, that would be eliminated as well, which would also improve the space in the troop compartment.
