The Junfacs have been pretty reliable for me also.

The Maxx shaft mod is good, and the Stampede shafts with Axial yoke rings are pretty damn stout too.

I've seen too many people break a Punisher to have any interest in them at all.

But the plastic traxxis ones are so cheap, and strong, and don't bind so early, and are so much lighter. I have a junfac up front because a thicker shaft would force one of my front lower links down closer to the ground. And I'm too lazy to change the pinion and put another driveshaft together. Damn you, you stupid strong plastic ears!!!

Yup. Add the Axial rings to them and they're even better.

I've had great luck with the Stampede shafts. 15t drift motor on 3s full forward to reverse punishment on carpet and no issues. I can see there being problems if you run a way heavy rig though.

The wraith shafts are terrible. You can add rod to the inside but you will break them very easily still, At least thats what i did

Wish I had done more research, I just got a set of the integy shafts from TCS. Havent put them in yet but after reading on here and going back and looking more at TCS I could have had a better shaft for just a few dollars more. Anyone had any luck with the Integy shafts?? Sorry to hijack.
