If you get used ones , just make sure the ball cups aren't worn down. MIP is kinda expensive and you can get the same quality with other name brands.

The drive cups(I said it wrong) are the black peices that the chrome shaft go in to. I've seen them wear down after a while.

I own a revo so im not to familier with the t-maxx. Unless the 3.3 is wider then the 2.5 I don't see a reason why they wont work?... maybe ask the guy why hey don't work.

well they all use the same suspension parts so i dont see why they wouldn't fit. as long as the cvd's dont bind they wont chew up the drive cups.

they will fit fine, the only difference between the 2.5 and 3.3 arms is that the 3.3 arms are made to fit the thicker revo universals, they aren't wider. and IMO MIP CVD's are the BEST, except in the revo, because their design allows the pins to fall out somewhat easily. they are made out of much higher quality materials than most other brands, though they are a bit more expensive.
