I was thinking about Associated unobtanium shafts, but I'm a little worried that although in principle they may fit, the mix of metric/imperial will allow for slight leakage due to an improper seal.
Does anyone know how Losi and Associated's system works in terms of the shaft length - is it related to the stroke? The longest Losi do, for example, is 1.2" but surely the shaft itself is longer than this (tip to tip, including thread)?
I'm worried about the strength of the steel (aren't they?) turnbuckles and shock shafts in the TRF501X kit, so I was going to give the titanium equivalents from the MR4-BX a try. They are slightly different lengths though; shouldn't be a problem with the turnbuckles, and hopefully won't adversely affect the handling regarding the shock shafts. I'm pretty sure they'll be a direct fit, I'll check first though.
