Well you were right^^

The axles are too short. Back to the drawing board. I guess I will either eat the $40.00 and find some new dogbones or eat the $50 chassis and make a shorter one.

I finally have a few minutes to mess with the project. I decided to pull the CVD's out of my LST2 and what do you know.... They fit!! Well close anyway. The are just a hair too long and bind if they are straight. If I raise the center diff they seem to work nice.

I modeled them up tonight without moving the center diff yet. Here are some pics.

I need 93mm. (3.66 in)

The Losi cvd's are 3.835 in.

After working on this last night I don't like it. The diff needs to move way up. I'll look for another dogbone or change things around.
