This is what I use for center shafts.

E-Revo Center Dog Bone Kit

You also need two of these to fit on the 8 mm input shafts of the LST diffs. Get the ones with an 8 mm bore of course.

RC Monster Drive cup - Hardened steel

Last thing I had to do to make everything fit nicely was to cut the front part of the output shaft of the E-Revo tranny and make a new hole for the screw pin. This was needed because the RC Monster drive cups are longer and were pushing the front shaft on the tip of the tranny's output shaft and it was binding badly. I pushed the cup that comes with the Kershaw dogbones as much as I could towards the tranny case. I also had to Dremel a tiny bit on the Tranny case so the screw pin doesn't rub on it. You'll understand what I mean by that when you try to put it all together.

Having said that, I have to apologize to Dan Kershaw for saying that his E-Revo dogbones were too long to fit. They were the exact correct length, it was the RCM cups that were longer. Hey it's not my fault! I remember watching the Transformers with my son that day and while installing the Kershaw dogbones later on, I was distracted by fantasies about Megan Fox. So sorry Mr Kershaw. Man I'm glad I got that off my chest.
