I'm not sure if this is a crawler question so don't be offended if it get moved to chit chat.

A lot of folks running tlt axles have used the axle ends from the blackfoot for the extra length. To use 12mm hub beadlocks on the rear end of the blackfoot, just remove the plastic round thing, then attach a 12mm hub over the pin. The beadlocks will bolt right on. As for the front axle, I'm not sure but you could check the vendors section. RC4wd makes beadlocks for the stampede, and it's front is similar to the blackfoot. In fact you could use the rear beadlocks of the stampede set just as I described above too. E-mail them for some specs and see if the mods would be minimal.

Good luck.

RC4wd also makes an adapter for running 12mm hex wheels on the front of 2wd trucks.
