Mugen MRX-5 Front Axle Shaft 7075-T6 by Arrowmax AM-MRX5-H0271-Al  [AM-MRX5-H0271-Al]

Front axle shaft for Mugen MRX-5

This front axle shaft is a 1/8 scale RC component made for the Mugen MRX-5 chassis and serves as the front CVD universal axle for wheel drive connection. The AM-MRX5-H0271-Al unit is the 7075-T6 aluminium version and is supplied as 2 pcs, intended to replace or upgrade the stock universal front axles.

Arrowmax offers this axle in three material options across the MRX-5 range: 7075-T6 aluminium for a balance of stiffness and weight, spring steel for increased toughness, and titanium for a high strength-to-weight tradeoff. This listing specifies the aluminium variant, chosen when a firmer front driveline feel is preferred during tuning.

Installation notes: the axle functions as a front CVD shaft that plugs into the MRX-5 front hubs and universals, so standard MRX-5 wheel hub and universal retention methods apply. Check fitment clearance in the hub and CVD boots during installation and verify that wheel hex and set screws are secure before running.

Tuning role: swapping to a 7075-T6 aluminium axle can affect steering feedback and driveline stiffness; use it where firmer front response is desired while monitoring surrounding components such as universals and wheel hexes for wear.

As the aluminium option in Arrowmax's MRX-5 lineup, this axle is suited to MRX-5 owners seeking a stiffer front driveline without moving to heavier steel variants; check compatibility with existing front hubs before purchase.
