More info

These Traxxas WideMaxx Driveshafts upgrade your drivetrain to extended steel CV shafts designed to handle high-torque, brushless power while keeping power delivery smooth under load. Axle-side bearings lock the drive pins in place to prevent back-out, and differential-side, large-bore drive pins are press-fit into heavy-duty steel drive cups for positive engagement.

Key Features

  • Steel CV construction for improved torque handling and efficient power transfer in high-power brushless setups.
  • Axle-side bearings secure drive pins to prevent pin back-out during hard acceleration and heavy loads.
  • Large-bore drive pins on the differential side are press-fit and slot into heavy-duty steel drive cups for strong engagement.
  • Included bearings are rubber-sealed to keep out dirt and grit, extending service life in dirty conditions.
  • Durable black-oxide coating helps resist rust on the drive gear and mating components.
  • Splined, telescoping design provides full-range articulation so you don’t need to limit suspension travel.

Compatibility Requirement

Designed for WideMaxx systems and must be used with WideMaxx suspension arms and 8654-series 17 mm splined wheel hubs with 7758-series 17 mm wheel nuts.

Why Choose These Driveshafts

Traxxas WideMaxx Driveshafts are a straightforward upgrade when you’re pushing more power or running a brushless setup. The combination of sealed bearings, press-fit drive pins, and a splined telescoping joint delivers reliable engagement and full suspension movement—ideal for hobbyists who want a stronger drivetrain that handles aggressive driving.

Must-have for Maxx V2

I broke two axles before, now no issues at all.
