Thanks now i have a little diffrent questiom you may be able to help with i have a klein sprint car im trying to widen with b4 rear hubs also... It uses the same width arms a lot of guys on here have typically used for "worlds" car builds is there a axle long enoight to use b4 hubs with the wider arms? B44 front bones and rear axle are too short losi 22 bones are just not quite long enough when used with a associated axle but might work but the part that goes into the cva is slightly diffrent than the associated in dia im assuming because its metric

Yes i can i will have to take some and go to the parents house to load em it keeps saying i cant load em with my phone... It uses rc10gt rear arm mounts the klein or "worlds" width rear arms and with gt rear carriers a b4 cvd works flawlessly they would be a little long on an offroad car but (not mych suspension travel therefore not much dogbone plunge and they work good) problem arises when trying to use b4 rear carriers to get more width the b4 cvd is too short and i have heard of people using a b44 front cva bone with b44 rear axles but that combo is way to wide... I used a losi 22 dogbone and a associated cva axle bam combo will work fantastic! BUT the losi dogbone beeing metric is sloppy in the associated axle once assembled... Im kinda at a loss

9mm longer than a b4 bone, but is probably more than you want.

Very nice looking Klein, are you trying to increase the rear width to race it?
