Hey with the font of knowledge on here I figured I would ask if anyone had any ideas as to streatching the driveshafts on the MRC....
I cant come up with anything as of yet.....
I would try to drill out stock axial yokes and fit the MRC yokes inside them and use AX10 shafts. Like the E MAXX driveshaft mod for the AX10."thumbsup"

if extra drive shafts are avail take 1 outer sleeve cut it and ca it to your current outer sleeve to extend it, or take 2 splined inner shafts put 1 on each yoke then take the outer sleeve cut off whater you need (all depends on how much you want to stretch it) and and ca it to the splined inner shaft from tranny out put and just install other end like normal. hope all my gibberish is understandable.:shock:

exactly what I was going to suggest. each driveshaft gets two females and one male (Who doesnt like that?). one female gets the male CA'd into it.

This is what I done. I cut the male shaft in half and jb welded it in the ends of 11/32 tube. "thumbsup"

Try this link, they sell an extended chassis that includes DS extentions. May be available seperately.

Could be just my bad driving, but the extensions that come with the extended chasis from new era lasted about 4 drives.
