they will work just fine. the #1 most reccammended upgrade for a stock creeper is to change out the stock drive shafts. those shafts are also the ones that r reccammended by us creeper guys to swap to. all the guys run them and they work just fine.

one thing about the plastic yokes is dont tighten the screws to tight. they are very easy to strip out and then u have to get a new set.

those are the wrong yokes...you need tra-4628x...the ones you show there are for 5mm shafts that need to be drilled for the yoke pins....not a good idea with 5mm out put shafts. As far as I know those yokes wont work with the tra1953 shafts. My steelys lasted almost two seasons...and I only replaced one complete shaft

i think the shafts you need for those yokes are 6850x

ask the lhs which traxxas yokes are for 5mm shafts...

ok i didnt end up goin yet so that good thanks again for the info. so there isnt any plastic yokes that will work or do just need to get the #6850x shafts?

double check with your lhs but I think so....
