Lastly, if you happen to take a hard hit to the wheel, something will have to give. And since the shafts are already at the diff, this likely will mean a bent universal shaft.
So grab a pair of the 46mm shafts and save the 48mm shafts for if you ever decide to try the LW reversible suspension.
thx dude for the advise. guess i will have to drop by a hobby shop later to grab mysself a new 46mm shaft.
