Not sure I'm liking the old style U joint configuration . I would prefer CV setup, but if your looking for a true scale piece this is probably the way to go.

On R/C cars, dogbones are CV joints. That means "constant velocity". The input and output shaft rotate at exactly the same speed, no matter what the angle.

A universal joint is different from a CV joint. The MIP "CVD" joints (and most of the other "ball and socket" joints in the R/C world that are labeled as "CV") are actually universal joints. The usual shape of a universal joint is two forks pronged together with a gimbal in the middle, but if you examine the MIP-style joint closely, you'll see that it is mechanically equivalent to a u-joint, not a CV joint.

It turns out SSD00089 fits the Bronco rear.

So I will get the product details updated for it ASAP.

These SSD driveshafts splined all the through on the female side? Ie, I need to cut one down to shorten it up.
