Default Need shaft help!!!

Hi Folks,

I've been out in the woods bashing roots and climbing hills and so on and I've broken the worst thing... The drive shaft from the gear box to the rear axle!!!

I've had a look online but can't find one anywhere???

So, Are there any others that fit or after market units???

measure it out and find an aftermarket/universal. I've got axial wildboars, my buddy runs a punisher, gmade makes a good one in many different lengths.

Thanks Vinnyphx!
I'm building an Axial Wraith right now and you got me thinking...
I tried the Axial shafts on the Venom and they fit but are too long so I'm gonna cut them down by 5mm or so and get upgrades for the Wraith!

I run stock Gmade shafts in front and rear. The Venom stuff doesn't have the hole through the outputs/inputs so I made a collar and threaded them to hold the shafts in place. They are holding up very well for me on my 2.2 scaler with a 45t novak motor and 4S battery.
