Well i cheated and just used a pair of chopped e-maxx tranny output shafts,i could have machined them myself but it was just easier since they have the right part to attach to the sliders already, so i didn't have to worry about getting the slider yoke to spin true.

I just took them down to the right length in the lathe and drilled the holes with the pillar drill.Just lots of careful measuring needed to work out the length of the shaft and the distance between the holes.Could just be done with a dremel/hacksaw and a bench drill.

The chassis is alu g-maxx,going to try the short wheelbase at first.Never had a maxx before.
