If i have standard or RPM arms on my 10T and install RPM 70272 carriers and bearings along with b4 axles ( same as the WOIN buggy builds)......do i just need to swap the bones to T4 9569 parts to get the correct length CVD?

You can pick up a set of t2 cvds and use the stock carriers with 3/32 id bearings. That is what I did with my 10t.

T4's are to long. The B4 axles will work but you have to get a spacer for them.
b4 set up get this.

The rpm carriers use 1/2 x 3/16 bearings.

Great...thanks for that info. I just discovered the rear end of my old rc10 gt and it has some cvd's that should work?
I should have said that the axles i have are b4.1 not b4 so The cup is on the axle not the bone.

Not sure we are talking cvds ? Here is the dog bone for ya.

Thanks for all your advice but Sorry i am not being very clear.
I have gone the usual WOIN route with my buggy with RPM GT 70272 bearing carriers and B44 CVA. I wanted to do something similar with my truck.... I have a spare set of RPM 70272 bearing carriers And 70280 bearings as well as a complte set of CVA's from a B4.1....the carriers,bearings and axels will bolt straight on but obviously the #9672 bone is too short for a truck.....and the #9596 T4 bone is too long.....with the B4.1 CVA the cup is on the axle not the drive shaft so GT or T2 parts wont fit.
So is keeping the stock bearing carriers and using the GT or T2 drives mentioned above my only options?

It shouldn't matter which carrier you use as they do the same job in the same place the only difference being the bearing size. I don't know the answer on the cva's but the MIP CVDs fro the t2 or gt will work.

Part 7361 to drive the 10t slotted outdrives to the b4.1 slotted axles. B4 spacer for the axles and 1/2 x 3/16 bearings for the rpm carriers . Thats what I am getting from this story.

Agree about the bearings and spacers but my b4.1 axels are not slotted...when i say cup i just mean the half circlar dome that the rest of the CVD fits into...on the T/ B4.1 this is on axel instead of the drive shaft like older CVD setups
Will keep it simple and use the GT CVD's

I was just about to press the button on some T2 CVD`s when I lucked out and found these 3/16" axels in my parts box....never had a T2 so I guess they must be from a B2 that I had???

I used the rest of the parts from the Gas Truck CVD`s

Then the RPM carriers, bearings and B4 spacers....parts bin special but works great! thanks for all the help
