Thanks for the help guys, I will take some pics and measurements later today and see if we can come up with a plan

Maybe try a Yokomo Bmax 2 rear bone #B2-010RB and Bmax 4 universal joint #BM-010TPC ?

Not sure about the YZ-2 gearbox but it worked for me with the stock gearbox, standard arms and B4 hubs.

So I have a few dogbones in my collection. These measure some center to center, not total length. They are:

- 65.5mm front axles from B44.3
- 59mm from a B44.3 optional slipper kit
- 54.25mm from a B44.1 front center shaft

Hope this helps for your options.

Thanks so much for the info, this is a great help, I will take some measurements and go down the AE route so I can keep hubs etc

[RC10th]

For what it's worth I measured the Yokomo bone at 62.2mm center to center.

Ok good news so maybe the yokomo driveshaft/hub may give me the answer to get the full suspension travel

Cant wait to race this and surprise the modern cars!!

i was going to suggest looking at the bones/axles from the car you 'trans'planted the trans from for bone length. I would assume that this setup would be in the right width to be at or near the ROAR maximum, then you just need to work the arms/hubs to fill the gap.

Thanks for the suggestions guys and I have a solution!!

In the end I used Yokomo yz2 stock dog bone and drilled out the AE axle to 2mm and job done we have full suspension travel!!

[RC10th]

That's all I did, drill the hole in the axle to 2mm to accommodate the yokomo universal joint pin.
