You mean the stock Traxxas axles (sliders) with the LST diffs? Yes that's what I ran for a long while. You need to take 4 extra Traxxas axles and cut the threaded part plus about 1 mm and replace the LST output cups with these modified Traxxas axles. The stock Traxxas sliders can fit on the LST diffs with no problem. Or you could get 4 of Monster Mikes 1/8 diff output shafts if you don't want to modify the Traxxas axles.

I don't understand your comment of ''building the bulkheads around the diffs''. Do you mean to modify the bulkheads to match the LST diffs? If that's the case, it is better to modify the diff casings to fit in the bulkheads. There's only one part of the case that can't be changed and that's where the front screws are. That is where the bulkheads need to be modified, just to make enough room for that front part of the diff case where the screws are. Very minimal material is taken off the bulkheads. If you try to fit the bulklheads around the diffs without modifying the diff cases, way too much material is taken off the bulkheads and they will break easily.


No brain, no headaches.

I think I wasn't very clear with my question. I was asking is anyone hasn't changed the out put shafts on the LST diffs and ran them with LST axles like you did on your Revo. I know that the bulk heads have to be shaved in a few areas from your post and from when I did mine to make them fit. I guess I still might not be very clear on what I am trying to say. Keep the LST diffs stock shave them on the top to clear the chassis, but build the bulkheads around them. If you keep the LST diffs stock they wont fit through the slots cut like the stock ones do. You would not be able to get your diff out without taking your bulkheads apart but you also would have to swap the stubs over inside the diff. This was something I was kicking around and was curious if anyone else has done it or thought about doing it this way.
