Here we go again........ Tips and tricks thread...STICKY..at the top pf the page..reading is fundamental. TECH TIP 3 Change the stock drive shafts. Most of us use some sort of after market drive shafts. I personally recommend the Traxxas units. They are a bit pricey but you will save money in the long run if you don't have to keep buying parts. I use the Traxxas Hardened Steel Yokes,,,Part # 4628X, you'll need two packages of these for your rig, there are two yokes in each package. I also use the Traxxas Long, truck Half-shafts,Part # 1951, one package for the truck contains two male and two female shafts. part # 1953 is a Pro pack of the shafts which has 6 complete M/F shafts. The Yokes are steel and should be installed with two set screws per yoke, and the shafts are plastic,,but trust me they are strong and will last a long time. I'm running the original set of shafts I installed months ago. At the very least,,,,Use Blue Loctite,,,on the set screws when you install the yokes to your transmission and axle out put shafts. Let the Loctite cure before you drive the rig or put it under power. Last edited by rmdesignworks; 03-10-2012 at 07:26 PM. |

These shafts fit without modification or did you have to mod them a bit? | |

The only issue with running drive shafts that dont break is that something else will...and the Traxxas shafts are a cheaper replacement then some other parts.
