Tied for 1st on Sunday with no rear dig . The axles work great with the BMVII chassis. I'm editing a video of the comp. I should have it up in a week or two.

FYI, TC3 differential input shafts drop right into the pti axle housing. I dremmelled a flat spot onto them and slid traxas metal yokes over them. Now, if I can figure out how to get the shafts onto the u-joint without any blood loss.
I like what you did there with the yokes. I'm going to have to try that on mine. Just a couple of questions though.
What yokes are you using (part # please.)? Also which sliders are you using? T-maxx, Revo or Jato? (part # if possible)

Thanks!

I was hoping that I could get Paul to make some input shafts that ended in a 5mm and 6mm diameter with a flat spot. Make sure the the yokes are 5mm. They are for the stampede. The newer tmaxx uses a 6mm yoke and larger shafts.

Yokes:

I think these will work as well: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...&I=LXJJ77&P=ML

Drive Shafts:
I'm 90% sure these are the ones that fit the yokes ( I threw away the package):

If you want to see the truck in action. I'm the last truck.
