Default Driveshaft Question?

So I tried to do a search and dont know if I am calling this the right part.

I know a bunch of this decision is going to be personal preference but I am trying to figure out the pros vs. cons between the MIP, Junfac, and Punisher driveshafts. My rig is an axial based scaler with no dig and standard center mount tranny and motor. Its not super scale or anything like a lot on here but it drives and entertains me.

SUPER SHAFTS! My overkill tech contribution

There is some more info in the ax10 section
I thought there was once a full rundown on the revo mod.

I saw this and will post another in a bit

here ay go
Maxx Shafts made easy.

When I had a ax10,it already had the revo shafts on it,I beat that truck,then my wife drove it.
I never had to worry about the shafts.

I run the Junfac, as it was what was recommended to me. Steel, but cheaper than MIP's.

Hmm i wonder how hard it would be to drill it out with a vicice and a drill? I almost like the idea of just bolting something right up but could always go for saving money.

Any other opinions out there?

when you start searching you'll find the integy shafts are the cheapest metal shafts you can get, thats why i bought them. they suck out of the box but once you grind flat spots or drill a dimple fir the set screws and use lots of locktite i love them. ive not messed with the mip's but my buddy swears by them.

ps: im running an scx10 dingo with the vxl esc and velineon brushless motor from my slash 4x4

I've had great results using Axial steel yokes and traxxas drives hafts on all of my scalers including the 6x6.
