Engineered specifically for the extended suspension geometry of the Traxxas WideMaxx configuration, this heavy-duty outer half-shaft assembly is a critical replacement component. It features a rugged composite external telescoping slider mated directly to a high-strength steel stub axle via a heavy-duty universal joint (U-joint). This setup is designed to handle the extreme angles and punishing rotational torque delivered by brushless 4S LiPo power systems.
Key Features & Performance Advantages
-
Extended WideMaxx Geometry: Designed explicitly for WideMaxx suspension setups, providing the extra length needed to prevent the driveshafts from popping out during extreme articulation or hard jumps.
-
Heavy-Duty Steel Stub Axle: The threaded axle shaft is machined from premium hardened steel to withstand heavy side impacts, prevent bending, and resist stripping when securing wheel hexes and nuts.
-
Impact-Absorbing Composite Slider: Constructed from Traxxas' signature high-flex polymer to absorb sudden drivetrain shocks, protecting your differentials and motor from harsh impacts.
-
Fully Assembled U-Joint: Arrives pre-assembled with the cross pins, metal stub axle, and outer slider shaft already put together, saving you time and getting you back to bashing quickly.
-
Direct Drop-In OEM Fit: No-hassle, drop-in replacement that meshes perfectly with your stock inner driveshaft half-shaft (#8950).
