Yea I know Aluminum is not as durable as the stock or RPM, I was just going to do the uppers.

The Large arms that allow shock inside are (Integy) intt3122s for revo rear

the smaller sleeker ones are (integy) t3203, revo front but unlike the 3122 these do not have nylon inserts

NEW UPGRADES

Fitting Losi 2.0 muggy Diffs inside Traxxas emaxx and Revo bulkheads

Screw the dremel to make a round tube smaller, I used my drill press and an endmill bit- 4 flut .
There is a thread on how to fit muggy truggy diffs in your revo or maxx but it consisted of a lot of hand held dremel time and ugly finish

With using a Drill press you get a precise cut and finish in 2 minutes !

Here is how I did it, Lath process with a drill press !

1" Hose coupler at hardware store $.99.
cut off an inch or so and find a socket that fits snug inside

then clamp the the socket in the vise of the drill press so that you can rotate the coupler by hand

use a 1/2" endmill

then measure how much needs to be trimmed down. I eyeballed it then checked with a caliper.
turn on drill press and bring down bit and then just start slowly turning the the plastic tube to cut all the way around.

I made 4 pieces in less than 15 minutes

First pic
I cut the stub axles to fit the Losi side diff gears and still use Revo axle shafts
I replace the stub wheel axle with new titanium stubs.

To make Lockers for the diff and the new Losi muggy center Diff I cut a piece of aluminum and Delrin to fit inside the carriers which ties the left/right outputs to the ring gear
(note: I used Delrin because it was easier to cut and sand down in the belt sander and it was lighter by a tad.
using the Alum one for the Center

Nice looking adapter! I had a piece of sch 80 turned down to match the large ID on the bulk. And then had it paired off to the correct width. I did not bother to make the little step like you did, as I saw no need for it. Modding the front pinion support takes a bit of work, you need to turn the inside out to the OD of the nose of the lst case, then clearance the back of the collar to get it to fit against the lst case.
