Default Question about cutting some revo drivelines

I am trying to put in the super shafty bullet proof tranny and decided to use the revo shafts instead of mip for right now. However need to cut them down a bit so was checking to see if anyone that has done this could tell me how much they had to trim? Best way to trim them? Have not done this yet so like to see whats best so I dont ruin them

I cut mine with grinder with a thin cut off wheel. Then deburred with a razor knife.

I can't help you on length.

Here's mine





I put a dab of ca on the joint clips to make sure they didn't get knocked off

I've used a dremel tool to do this.

Thanks for those, after waiting for a couple days trying to find the answer I just went ahead and gave it a try and well the cutting part went ok, I used a pvc pipe cutter which worked great and did a clean cut.
Problem....how did you over come the pinion size? traxxas ends are 6mm and wraith pinion ends are 5mm.

These are just as good as any other shaft out there. They are great for extending the wheels.
