3.3 Conversion with g-maxx single speed 3906 tranny

[JThiessen]

Guys, I'm trying to find out if there is a direct drop in center driveshaft when using the single speed conversion. My 2.5 long shafts are too short - I have about 1/2" of the slider engaged in the rear, but the front is a good inch longer.
The 2.5 Part number was 5455 - with front and rear being quite different -the longer one being the rear shaft.
The 3.3 Part number is 5456 - from looking at the exploded view, both seem to be about the same length. But are they now both the same length as the old rear shaft?

I purchased the E-Revo half shaft kit, thinking they would work. But the rear is a short little guy (similar to the 2.5 front), and the front is actually a converted driveshaft. I may end up being able to make that one work - depends on me being able to get all those damn c-clips pulled, and pressing out the pins on the yolk assemblies - one of my least favorite jobs!

3.3 revo front and rear center shafts are the same lengths. The 5456 will work perfectly. Keep in mind that even though you have the gmaxx single speed conversion, the tranny shaft is still the same lenght and 6mm in diameter. Just make sure you also buy the 5458x yokes.

Thanks - I have the right yolks (I'm just transferring everything over from my 2.5 to the 3.3)
