I'm running revo pushrods as my lower links, but they just got me to 11.5", and I jerry rigged my upper stock links with a longer screw and locking nuts, But Tamiya upper/lowers mounts #9804179 will allow you to mount custom upper links, I ordered mine from the crawler store, There many great "how to's" in the WK forum you can use the search to find them, For you steering I was going to use the free template on the forum but found out King Bling on the forum is selling them and they look great, I'm waitng for mine to arrive, your lucky you didn't have to make yours 4 wheel drive like I did. good luck

Yes you need those shafts. To get the 12.5 WB you can use Revo turnbuckles i know, as i had to trim mine down to get to 12". Im not sure about the Tmaxx ones as i have no experience, they may be the same part??? Good luck and enjoy, and get us some pics when you get her started...."thumbsup"

if your crafty and can make your own links, 112m.m. long for all links is good to put you at 12 1/2".
