Other items customers often buy with the Traxxas Driveshafts, steel constant-velocity (assembled), front or rear (4) (for use with 8995 WideMaxx suspension kit) (requires 8654 series 17mm splined wheel hubs and 7758 series 17mm nuts for a complete set)
Description
Traxxas Steel Constant-Velocity Driveshafts, assembled for front or rear use, TRX8996X, are supplied as a pack of four units for the 8995 WideMaxx suspension kit. These steel driveshafts are designed for torque handling and power transfer in high-power brushless applications, with a splined telescoping design that provides full-range articulation without limiting suspension travel.
At the axle side, bearings retain the drive pins and help prevent them from backing out. On the differential side, large-bore drive pins are press-fitted and engage with the heavy-duty steel drive cups. The included bearings are rubber-sealed to help keep dirt out, while the black-oxide coating helps resist rust on the drive gear.
The suggested compatibility is with WideMaxx suspension arms and the 8995 WideMaxx suspension kit. To complete the suggested setup, these steel CV axles require 8654-series 17 mm splined wheel hubs and 7758-series 17 mm wheel nuts. The shafts are supplied assembled, ready for installation as front or rear driveshafts within the specified WideMaxx arrangement.
