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

This weekend I discovered that the clearance under the upper suspnsion arm would not allow the tmaxx half shafts to be used. SO, using the stock cvds would be an option. You would, however need to use different bearings, as the axle of the mt2 is smaller than that of the tmaxx. Before you head too far down the road, make sure that the space between the bearings on both the mt2 axle carriers and those of the tmaxx are the same. If the tmaxx has a larger space, you will not have enough space on the axle to put the pin through the hole on the axle. If you are going to access to such a large amount of parts, I would be interested in finding out if any other truck's suspension arms would fit on the mt2. Of course I would be looking for ones that are longer. I have been looking on the net, but it is hard to size things up that way ;-)
