Default Losi MRC steering mod

I wanna do the the LCC chub and knuckles mod for the MRC but it calls for the stub shafts and I'm having a hard time finding those, is there something else I can use? Thanks for any help.

XR steering.. About the same money, if not cheaper with plastic C's and knuckles..

Dravtech wrapters.. Direct mount XR C's mounting..

PLUS.... WAY BETTER STEERING FOR YOUR EFFORTS..

I have a Losi mini rtr version. I need to improve steering. So far it's hard to find parts. I know getting cvd's are a really good method, but they are very hard to find. What is XR steering? Is this another option where parts may be more available to me? Please advise.

If you take a look at this thread you can see how I did the XR mod on some ascender axles.

read back through the thread. the XR mod is much stronger and easier to get.
CVD's were nice back before universals, but the advantages you get from this mod far outweigh any other options...just my 2 cents

Thanks for the input. I have heard this a number of times with the XR mod. I'm a bit concerned about the modding it will take and having to get new knuckles and chubs as well as the uni's and the wrapter adapters (cost). I am NOT doing hardcore crawling down here in Louisiana. It's mostly scale crawling on self constructed courses. I will still keep it in true consideration though.....thanks.
