RE:Two shafts,are there 1 long & 1 short..? Yes they are necessary as they`re the shafts the gears spin on.
Alot of ppl swap these 2 shafts for the Tamiya Carbon Fibre Shafts to save on a little rotating mass in the drivetrain.
RE: Generic Bearings , There`s no reason why you cant use them just take the bushes down with you so you get the right ones
