Default Dingo drive shaft upgrade

Ok so I broke my first part on my dingo today the rear driveshaft pin broke the part that makes the ujoint part if the w8 drive shaft I am running a small lift and 2.2 so when I get to full articulation ther is a small amount of binding and I am wanting a drive shaft that can handle sharp drive line angles and was wondering if the junfac drive shafts or the mip drive shafts would be better for my truck I am very limited on funds so I only want to buy drive shafts once the stocks lasted me over 2 years

Axial Racing - WB8 Universal Joint Rebuild Kit (2pcs)


The reason why you have binding is probably due to the lift. Either take off the lift or adjust your upper links to get a better pinion angle.

If you're not running a high powered motor or really stressing the driveshafts too much, another set of WB8s will treat you fine. You said it yourself that your current set lasted you 2 years.

Ok so I plan on rebuilding my stock drive shafts and keeping them for spares for my other scx10 so I want to upgrade the ones on my dingo to get rid of the little bit of binding I have at full extension due to longer shocks and a lift kit and longer links won't do it and I'm not taking the lift off because than I won't be able to use the truck at all the wheels and tires won't fit and I don't want to hack up my body here is how it sits


I also have weight in the front tires and tend
