Have I misunderstood? It is a case of 52mm fitting with no issue, just creates different steering / handling traits?

Hi Alan - yeah, they shipped today. Both lengths fit - the major difference is handling, and the amount of 'roll' that the front end. the longer drive shafts roll less, the shorter ones roll more.

I like the excitement about the Mira Outdrives. Now all we need are some Photon EX cars to put them in .
