Overview
Replace the factory plastic center driveshaft on your Axial SCX10, AX10, Wraith, RR10, or Tamiya CR01 with the Hot Racing Steel CV Center Driveshaft (Short, 95-130mm). CNC-machined from hardened carbon steel with aluminum pin capture rings and rubber o-rings, this premium driveshaft delivers smooth, slop-free power transfer with the durability to handle brushless motors and serious crawling.
The setscrew-free CV pin design eliminates one of the most common failure points of stock driveshafts, while the recommended grease-and-thread-locker installation ensures a long, trouble-free service life. Multiple length options (short/medium/long) let you pick the right driveshaft for any chassis configuration.
Key Features
- CNC-machined hardened carbon steel construction
- Black-finished steel for clean appearance
