| has anyone used these
Hey guys I picked up Integy T8118 Universal Drive Shafts to get better turning radius and the shafts dont fit into the stock spool. Now when i fround the part number it never said i had to use it with anyother part. so my problem is i have a round shaft that has to go into the stock spool. any ideas? |

integy = crap.... prices seem good, but once you actually get the parts in your hands, you'll realize quick why they are cheap. I've had nothing but bad experiences with their products and would recommend you cut your losses and just pony up (which, quite frankly isn't much) for something better from one of the vendors on this site. The WK/CK is a great platform if build correctly, and from my experience (and quite a few others from searches), nothing Integy makes, works for that.

X2 on the Integy stuff, only parts of their's I would use are in low stress applications. After seeing their WK driveshaft fall apart on a nearly stock truck with a 15t mod motor in less than 5 minutes, no way would I trust those parts. Look to RCP and see if they might have any of their MIP made CVD's left.

Not all integy stuff is crap. People just say that cause they can't think for them selves. I ran a set of integy shafts on my axial crawler awile ago they worked well just have to be careful of cross threading the set screws. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2 |
