[link=http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXHGC9&P=7]These[/link] will help you out with the fist picture and I don't think you can get longer toe links. That is a strange steering set up you have there.

RE: now these dont fit.......
The aluminum links for the new Maxx trucks fit without issue. IIRC the new knuckles use a different length tie rod than the older 2.5 style. You will need the "hollow balls" (the part that sits in the rod end) to install them, none of the tie rods come with them. Go on Traxxas.com, look up a new Maxx and under accessories you'll find the correct tie rods for the front and rear.

Since you have the 3.3 spec axle carriers and wide a-arms you will need the 3.3 spec/length toe links.
The red toe links are available in the size you need.

Part # 5141R - Front
Part # 5143R - Rear
Part # 5355 are the hollow balls you will need.
The toe links also come in black, change the R to an A in the part #.

RE: now these dont fit.......
I'm confused does the O.P. want maxx turnbuckles or revo turnbuckles?
Here are the revo turnbuckles if that is what you want. They are 128mm in length.
Black - Part# 5338A

Red - Part# 5143R

Not sure if there is any difference in strength but I have the black ones on my revo and I like how they look a little chunkier then the red.
