Overview
Eliminate weak-axle anxiety on your Traxxas Mini Maxx with the Hot Racing Heavy-Duty Splined Star CVD Driveshaft Kit. CNC-machined from #45 hardened carbon steel, this complete CVD axle kit replaces the factory front or rear driveshaft axles with race-grade splined CVD assemblies engineered to handle the torque loads of brushless upgrades and aggressive bashing.
The splined star CV joint design transfers power smoothly through full suspension articulation while the hardened steel construction resists the stripping, twisting, and breakage that ends a session early. Add the rubber dust covers and blue-anodized aluminum pin capture rings, and you've got a driveshaft system built to last.
Key Features
- CNC-machined #45 hardened carbon steel CVs, drive hub, male slider spline, and stub axle
- CNC-machined aluminum slider tube
- Blue-anodized aluminum pin capture rings prevent pin movement
- Rubber dust cover boots protect the CV joints
- Direct replacement for factory front or rear driveshaft axles
- Compatible with both front and rear axle locations
Performance Benefits
- Smooth power transfer through full suspension articulation
- Hardened steel construction handles brushless torque loads
- Resists stripping, twisting, and breakage

Usage Notes
Reuse the stock drive pin and set-screw pin during installation. Apply medium thread-locker on screws threading into metal. Maintain the CV joint and shaft spline with grease for smooth operation and long service life. Each kit covers either the front OR the rear axle pair — order accordingly.
