For a 12" wheel base, just use Honcho 106mm links in the rear. That's my set up of choice for 12" wheel base bodies.

Make you own for quarter of that price! 6mm brake line 8/32 all thread and revo rod ends around about 18 bucks!

You would need to drill them out with 1/8" bit, it's possible, but doesn't leave much material left. Revo ends are a better choice and are pretty much a standard when making your own links. That's what I have always used and what come with my stainless links.
