Default RE: T-maxx axle carriers and half shafts on a fun factor

theres more... forget all that complicated stuff above...

the cen stub shaft (that sits in the hub carrier) fits into the tmaxx shaft perfectly, it also has a hole drilled for the hex pin already...

the dogbone part of the cen shaft is exactly the same diameter as the part of the diff cup that goes into the diff gears... if i cut the dogbone shaft down and grind a flat one each side, then they would fit the diff gears perfectly also. however - this means there will be no pin joining the 2 sides like there is with the diff cups...

it does give me a true cvd shaft that slides if i use the tmaxx female shaft with it. (i will have to use it to retain the hex pin anyway...)

i could just use the male part and let the shaft slide in the diff gear, so long as i make the flat areas long enough to do so, and use the female part of the shaft to retain the pin only.

it looks great, old man has my cam lead tho... pics soon!!
