Yeti XL MIP driveshaft, isn't it about time ???

Just a tip to those who might do this mod you can cut the tube shorter to use the 5 mm thread or not put any tubes at all so you can use 6 mm bore hubs instead of the 8 mm. The distance between the the edge of the bearing to the center of the pinhole is 8.5 - 8.7 mm.

Also on the 6 mm tempered rods to replace the diff outdrive cup, you can use old bent/discarded YXL rear axles if you can get 26 - 27 mm from those just make sure your pinholes are centered.

Is there anything stopping the stub shaft from Pushing through the inner bearing or are you relying on the CVD Bell "thumbsup"
