| dropped and stretched...driveshaft ideas?
Laying here in bed, with the flu. Using my kindle, and couldn't get the search function to work. So, sorry if this question has been asked a hundred times... I recently stretched, and dropped my MRC. Going for a scale build. Custom fab job, all the way. Longer suspension links made out of thick "tomato-cage" wire... Custom aluminum plates to extend the y-arms. Sounds shady, but it's solid. The wheelbase is now 10". Hopefully I can use a cc01 land cruiser body. Possibly a newbright lr3...or something else. My question is, are there any drive shafts available for this longer wheelbase? Possibly off another crawler? Or from a hopup parts manufacturer? My drive shafts of course no longer connect...I've got a tentative custom fab design in mind, but would consider a simple pay-n-play if one is available. Any good links to other member's MRCs that are dropped and stretched? Thanks for your help, guys... |

MIPS with 4mm Allen wrench welded to the male end. Would be the modded way to go.
