Default Drive Shafts Question

Hi there,

Can anyone help with this Q, im looking but cant find any Traxxis Long Shafts, Ive seen them but do you think i can find them again, No. There for a Stampede Gearbox and my T.L.T , I want to place my links mounts behind the axles but the shafts that came standed are not quite long enough.

Any help or links would be much app.

Cheers fellow Crawlers

you'll have to splice a couple together and make your own extended shaft.

On my 2.2 build I used the Maxx shafts with the 4927X yolks on each side and they seem to be about right.

One thing I have seen done is people using two internal (male shafts) and one external (female) shaft. They cut the female shaft then slide it onto one of the male shafts then but everything together to get proper placement then CA the sleeve to one of the male shafts.

Take a peak at this build up using two female Jato shafts. Same principle as I posted earlier just using two female shafts rather then two male shafts.
