At first I used 22 front arms and carriers with the xxx4 spindles and shafts and it was a direct fit. However, all I had was the universals from the xx4. So, after fitting the 22 front arms, carriers and spindles I had to look for drive shafts. Using a metric mip style sedan stub axle I knew I could mount a mip cvd. The problem is the xxx4 cvd bones have been discontinued for awhile. Since I live in the US, I called MIP and talked to Eustace himself and he told me to look at the traxxas mip bones. I found some for the electric rustler but they were just a bit too long and would hit the diff when the front suspension was compressed. After searching online for countless hours, I ended up looking through a stock of old parts at a hobby shop I race at. There I found the answer, mip cvd bones for the losi lxt truck when using the xx retro transmission conversion. And, they fit perfect. I used a schumacher stub axle, and machined down the area where the pin is with a file. Then I used the losi front wheel hex from the HB d4. Done deal. Front suspension done, and wheels mount right up.
