X2 on that one....But if you have a dig unit you will also need to order the shorter rear shaft.

i'm running a 55t motor on an 8 cell elite 1500's and i'm using pede shafts and metal yokes without a hitch....don't know whats better with 7t pullers though, i don't see a need for crazy wheel speed on rocks....my 55 has all the wheel speed i need with the rig set up i'm running....so with the pede shafts i can just replace a shaft in seconds "IF" one lets go and i have a few on hand made up to do so for only 10.00 bucks spent .........bob

Default Maybe these

I've been in several comps, and my stock ones keep on going. Trust me when I'm not doing comps I really put them through the ringer. To save some money I heard that the Traxxas Stampede drive shafts are stronger and work very well.

I recently put a 7t / sidewinder /3s in my comp rig I used to run 50t / rooster/8.4v on that I only poped pede shafts occasionaly, the pulled pops them off or twists them with the 3s I'm going with the mips now the extra wheel speed is awesome helps sometimes, better to have it and not need it then need it and not have it , my old set up held me back.
