|  T Rex 60 drive shafts?
Hi guys. I have a set of RC4WD T Rex 60 axles and they have 5 mm inputs and the Axial trans doesn't. so my question is, what shafts are you guys using to make this work with the different sizes of the inputs on the axles and outputs on the transmission?

Thanks. Didn't realize that. On RC4WD it says that I would have to purchase a pair of their Punisher 2 shafts and I didn't know if there was another option out there. And those axles are not cheap. Would a pair of Traxxas shafts work? If so, which ones? Also, I have an AX10 trans without a slipper is it the same as the SCX10?

Traxxas metal yokes an long truck shafts.. get a pro pack, its 6 shafts an for 10$ instead of two for 6$ now for price to life long lasting.. get mips right off the bat. A pair of yokes on average are 20$ X2.. 40$ plus the shafts 10$ so 50$.. mips 60$ new, which you can find used for cheaper.. yes they are extra money. For that extra money, you get a life long drive shaft, with confidence of performance! To save 10$ you can twist the Traxxas plastic, pop the ears of the yoke, peel the yoke pin out of the ear, etc.. (a little personal history).. then I found a set of mips for like 25-30$ used.. I put them on, after tearing apart an loc-tite'ing everything, they have been on thru a couple comps, home course, an lots of trailing an crawling. WIthout one issue! I'll have them for life. Or sell them for they same 30$ I paid for them an someone else will use them for life..

| Re: T Rex 60 drive shafts?  Thanks for the info. That really helped me out. Now I need to to find the correct CMS kit and panhard bar for the T Rex 60 axles. Any suggestions would be great.  |

Yes, you are right. Just did a little research. Now I'm looking at CMS kits, RC4WD or Hands Brothers kit?
