Yeah you're right. Either way it still has the threaded ends which I really did not want. The only solutions were the 5T axles or the Integy adapters. Both of which I have... the 5T axles just feel a lot beefier than the Integy adapters on the stock axles.

I have also one XL set of diffs with cups and the flux dogbones do not fit as they are bigger.

Im sorry but you are wrong, they do fit. The XL and Flux drive cups are 11mm for the 11mm balls on the dogbones.

Flux Dogbone part #: 86246
XL Dogbone part #: 86246

Flux Drive Cup part #: 86248
XL Drive Cup part #: 86248

Flux Axle: 86928
XL Axle: 86249

I've got two XLs and one Flux. Just saying. And LiqrSicc you should check out my 5T conversion for what i did with the XL axles and the Baja 5B hexes; granted they wont work for your application, but you could do something similiar with the ofna hex adapters if you cant source 5T axles.

Hi.

I mean those from diff to the wheel side. Center ones are perfect fit. :)

Dejan, sorry but you are not correct. What I listed were the diff cups for the XL and Flux that connect via the SHD (11mm ball) dogones to the XL and Flux axles. The cups that connect the tranny/gearbox to the rear/front dogones are the standard 8mm cups.

Please refer to the manuals:

XL: http://www.hpiracing.com/kitinfo/104246/
Flux: http://www.hpiracing.com/kitinfo/104240/

Or the European versions, which don't differ:

XL: http://www.hpieurope.com/kit-info.ph...&partNo=104248
Flux: http://www.hpieurope.com/kit-info.ph...&partNo=104242

Like I said I have three of these guys; one XL nitro, one XL convert to 5T conversion (see my other thread), and then a Flux (or will be once I decide on the whether to run a standard TVP/axles or XL length TVP/axles).

My bad, I checked now at my car and they are the same.
I have remembered now the driveshaft was cousing problems.
I bought flux driveshafts and guy send me driveshafts with 9mm inside hole.
