Welcome to the forums!

I don't believe there are any "out of the box" shafts you can use. So, you'll need to get custom shafts and drive cups from Mike here at RCM, or wherever you prefer. Wherever you go, you'll most likely need to provide exact measurements.

Or, you might be able to modify Revo driveshafts to work. Just remove the booth and cut the parts down for the size you need...

Not too many people use the old emaxx tranny since some of the parts can be hard to find. I used it once in a Revo conversion a few years ago, but can't find the measurements I sent to Mike to make.

Hi Mate
I didnt use a tranny in my build so my shaft lengths are different entirely, but what i can suggest is waiting until you have the drive cups you are going to use and than taking your measurements.

hey sv6000 i'm not using the erevo.i'm using a nitro revo 3.3 chassis for my conversion.i know somebody has done a conversion using the nitro chassis with the emaxx tranny.i've made battery trays for the sides using 1/8" aluminum.i also plan on using only one servo for steering.
