Looks just like the axle from the mad force Mike!! lmao Big Grin
lol, the kits have great materials, but the RTRs readysets whatever cut alot of corners. throw some mp 7.5 universals on there and itll be fine forever. U should be able to find them hella cheap on ebay
got some on back order at a-main.

The universals from the HB lightning 2 would probably work too. Seeing as how many of the kyosho 7.5 parts work on the HB lightning series cars.

Half of my old LSP was Kyosho 7.5 aluminum stuff.
they would be wayyyy too long
The truggy CVD's wouldn't. However the buggy CVD's will. HB diffs are interchangable with kyosho diffs. Since all competition legal buggies are limited to the same F/R track width the it follows that most should have interchangable front and rear CVD's. Difference between differential width assemblies would change that, but since the Kyosho and HB diffs can be swapped, the cvd's should be as well.

My LSP used LST shafts and sportwerks boots to make the cvd's while using kyosho 7.5 based aluminum hubs. Worked fine.
the truggy cvds are longer than the buggy ones, you have it backwards

Yes, you are correct in that truggy cvds are longer than buggy cvds, but I'm not talking about using truggy cvd's on a buggy. I'm talking about parts compatibility between a 7.5 buggy and the Lightning 2 series buggy that already can share many parts between them.

I was just using my truggy as an example of what fits between the HB Lightning series and the Kyosho 7.5 based RC's. The IGT is based on the 7.5, as is the Inferno ST RTR. The Lightning buggies, and the Lightning Stadium Pro truggies share tons of parts with the 7.5 based stuff. The toe plates, castor plates, hubs, and many front suspension parts. They aren't made by the same companies but the parts fit fine.

My entire LSP front end hub assembly was built from Topcad CNC stuff made for the Kyosho 7.5 buggy. You can see some pics here:

The very first picture is of Topcad 7.5 hubs, and steering knuckles with proline 23mm adapters. The cvd's are LST shafts, and sportwerks boots using the hotbodies cvd internals. With the rest of the pics you can see that it installed fine on the truck.
