I received the Kershaw dogbones for the ERBE yesterday. They are 5 mm thick so they are as beefy as the LST XXL shafts and they ''look'' good. The rear shaft barely fit, it should be a couple mm shorter. The front one didn't fit at all. It is too long. I had to Dremel the slots in the diff cups to make the shaft go deeper so that it could finally fit. Even with that done, it is a little too tight for my taste. This shaft should be 3 mm shorter at least. Being too long and fitting as tight as they do on the length, they don't give a lot of room for chassis flex. The rain has finally stopped up here so I will get my punch control to zero and start doing repeated standing back flips to see if a true 8th scale drive train holds up running the ERBE on 6S.

No brain, no headaches.
