TRAXXAS Craniac 1/10 Monster Truck Steel Rear CVD Drive Shaft by GPM CRA1277RST  [CRA1277RST]

Rear CVD Drive Shaft for TRAXXAS Craniac

This steel rear CVD drive shaft is an aftermarket replacement part designed for 1/10 scale TRAXXAS Craniac Monster Truck models. As a hobby-grade RC component, it focuses on replacing worn plastic parts with a steel assembly that uses a spring steel cup joint for the CV connection, providing a direct mechanical replacement without altering the vehicle's intended drivetrain geometry.

Installation is typical for rear CVD shafts: remove the rear hub assembly and axle components, swap the stock shafts for the steel units, and verify spline alignment and retaining hardware torque. The part is supplied as one pair, intended to replace both sides for balanced driveline behavior. Use threadlocker where applicable on metal-to-metal fasteners and inspect splines for proper fit before full-power testing.

For tuning and maintenance, check the cup joint for play after initial break-in, keep mating splines lightly greased with suitable RC grease to reduce wear, and periodically inspect for bending or fatigue after heavy jumps or impacts. This component serves as a straightforward upgrade option when the goal is a more robust steel-driven rear output on a TRAXXAS Craniac 1/10 monster truck chassis.

Use this steel rear CVD drive shaft as a direct-fit replacement to improve drivetrain robustness on 1/10 TRAXXAS Craniac Monster Trucks, while following routine checks and basic maintenance to preserve service life.
