Default different shock ends? maxx size.

ok, ive hit a snag in my build.
seems the standard Traxxas Tmaxx shocks just arent long enough to fit onto the axles.
seems someone made a few bad measurements and the links have pushed the axles that little further away than i thought .
ok to be honest i didnt really take the shocks into account at all when i was measuring the length of the links, for some reason i just assumed the shocks would fit on. seems i was wrong.
anyway, the way i see it i have 3 options.
1) go back and cut all the links a little bit shorter and retap the threads
2) buy longer shocks
3) find a shock end (not cap) that is about 10mm longer than the standard Traxxas shock end that will fit the standard Traxxas thread.

i cant see myself going back and cutting the links again so that is basically out.
longer (and better) shocks is an option, so maybe some suggestions there?
different shock ends would also work but im not going to hold my breath in the hope of finding any with the same size thread.

so im open for peoples suggestions
