G-maxx chassis extension - 10.27.2006, 12:41 PM

Can I use the chassis extension on a stock e-max chassis? Also if I don't want the rear skid included with the kit can I just order this:
(GMX04-EX-AL-REARPLATE) G2 Ext Aluminum Rear Plate only?
Thanks

I don't think you can use the ext. kit on a stock chassis, since it incoperates the x braces.... alos along with the rear upperplate it has 2 posts that stiffen the ext. in the rear.....you can however use a front skid in the rear, in place of the lower skid...because it is the exact...layout as a front skid....except for you have to take the slight bend out of it....I did this for mine...but I used a titanium front skid in the rear, and took the slight kickup out of the skid....looks real nice too....

I would think with some mods, you could use it with the stock chassis.

True, but it could be done. I had a few extras and had things line up to do it once. But it involved mroe than enough work to do. Like you said, would not be worth it.:005:
Not only that, the stock chassis is not worth extending.

When useing the chassis extension I know that you can use a standard emaxx shaft, but what i want to know is has anyone tried useing revo centre shafts as i here that they are stronger.. I know therevo shafts are different sizes but does anyone know if they would fit.

I would say that the stock shaft would not work in the rear?:032:

you can use one of the front or rear shafts and cut them down to size for the middle
