RCMFMaxxMan I too have these. I even got bearings to work in the mad force hubs but couldn't figure out how to put wheels on them.

If You want to "spool" it with chance to go back, You could just throw in extra gears ( I prosume they still don't do that in factory ) and very very stiff diff oil

been running through a variety of posts, etc concerning CVDs for the vehicle and the common theme is finding (by that i mean, in stock) the cvd bone for the long side. Does anyone have a "current" listing of parts that will work to do a complete CVD set of the vehicle, in particular the long side and are actually available? |

I do my long sides by sleeving a short side to a stock doggone with some 1/4" break line. And then braze it. I've done a write up here or there. I don't think there are any that are a drop in size available anymore

doing a bit more searching, based on what someone mentioned a year ago it appears these may work: HPI Hellfire CVD Shafts for Center Axle | eBay However, I don't know for sure as the person never followed up to say that they did. But assuming the dimensions are right, this would be a source for the hard to find longer shaft and the shorter one. |

it could work, as long as you can disasemble the cvd and attach the stub shaft.

It looks like they're making them by themselves ? there's lots of cvd's on their kyosho page so You might get complete custom shafts

alright after talking with them basically they are wanting now to stick with selling the full on CVD kit where its all the cvds, etc for the whole car. Was trying to work with them to see if they could look into making a "CVD Kit" for the Kyosho line but alas I don't know if it was lost in translation or what, but its a no go. :( |

tried the traxxas part, it appears to be the right length but the end is too small to fit in the HPI hellfire part but appears I think to fit a D8 sized axle. Also, it appears to use a cvd joining part that I don't have on hand. the Losi LST has a part that is similar in length, trying to confirm the end dimensions on it. |
