I got a .21 conversion chassis for my T-maxx. Now I need a few other parts like a longer rear driveshaft and the piece that for your throttle linkage. It's for the slide carb. I don't know what it's called. Your rod runs from the servo to this "T" looking piece then from there to your slide carb. It works the carb. Thanks for any info.

depends on the conversion. You can get them from Dynamite, XTM, New Era...

Check out the thread on .25 Storm Sut, I have a couple of pics the engine and the way I have my slide carb configured with my .21 T-Maxx conversion. I took a wire coat hanger and dremeled the ends to fit the linkages for the slide carb and other stuff. Let me know if you have any questions. There are a couple of other ways that you can do this.

RespiroloqyRc can you post the pic's on here. I don't want to be a pain in the ***. I did a search and can't find .25 Storm Sut. What forum was it under?

yo, no joke, just get the stock long half-shaft, go to towerhobbies.com and search for traxxas long half shafts. basically they are the cvd's to the wheels

In the pic with the ruler, you can see that the marker shows 7" . The regular length of the one that would normally come with the TRX 2.5 is about 4.5" . Like I stated above I took a hanger and dremeled it until it was smooth and actuated without any hickups.

Ignore the holes in the photo above. I have my chassis setup for a 2 engine capability.

You'll also notice that my throttle servo is not in place. This is because I cut the wire accidentally and now have to put it back together.

Ah, yes if you're stil using the stock Traxxas style slider driveshafts. I assumed that ya went to drivecups and regular style dogbones since ya got the bigger engine in there. :D
