You need the basic.
Traxxas TRA1951 Half Shafts


You need one of these packages to make each longer driveshaft.
You also need the yokes. Regular ones are white plastic, or some come black plastic. I recommend using the steel yokes though. They're about $18 a pair though.

You take one of the male half-shafts, cut the universal joint off (where the yoke attaches) and glue it into a female (CA is fine). This gives you a longer male. Now take the other female and use it with the longer male as your extended driveshaft.

Ends up looking like this one:
