hi there!
 
i had the same problem and had to buy some UE cv's the longest ones they had and had to use a small spacer that came w/ the cv's .....if you use the spacer you will not have as many threds to screw your wheels on to, but it still works great w/a little lock tight!!!:025: i didn't know how to use the sliders and besides that the torque twisted my sliders!!!!!

here is a breif description on how to do it. It took me a while but it could have been better, but it is kindof hard to get everything exact in paint. sorry wording is very small mabey you could maginify it some how if you have any questions ask. http://i116.photobucket.com/albums/o...xelstubmod.jpg

Does anyone know if MIP CVDs will fit into the drive cups that come with the Hot Bodies diffs?

some cheaper alternatives with dust boots like THS do not

Thanks! This diagram clears it up for me. However, I don't feel like taking the diffs appart again. I just ordered some MIP CVDs so I'll see how they work. Thanks for all the help. Where did you find this documented (or did you do this yourself).

so the revo axle is 8mm in diameter?

GorillaMaxx360 05.21.2007 06:41 PM

6mm i believe that is why rd logics sells an 8mm axel kit as the upgrade.

Procharged5.0 05.21.2007 06:45 PM

I believe it's a 6mm as well. Maxx wheels bolt right on.

wallot 05.21.2007 11:44 PM

if they are 6mm how can u use them to make diff adapter for sliders when the bearing in diff is 8x16?

The diff sits between them Wallot. The collar of the diff is 6mm inner diameter and 8mm outer diameter.

Just as as followup for anyone reading this thread in the future, the MIP CVDs worked with the HotBodies Diff cups.

Yes, they do, so do the UE cvd's.
