TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S 4140 Carbon Steel Front & Rear Driveshafts and Drive Cups by GPM XRTM6162  [XRTM6162]

Front and rear driveshaft set for Mini XRT

This replacement set is intended for the TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S platform and contains front and rear 4140 carbon steel driveshafts alongside matching drive cups and set screws. The components are CVD-style dog bone assemblies designed to deliver consistent torque transfer within a 1/24–1/18 scale RC driveline, keeping the description strictly at hobby-grade application.

The shafts receive a black hardening treatment to improve surface wear resistance and durability compared with typical stock CVD components. The CVD configuration allows for wider steering angle travel while maintaining engagement through suspension movement, which helps preserve drive engagement during cornering and rough-surface runs.

Dimensions provided by the supplier note a front dog-bone length measured end-to-midpoint at 62mm and a rear end-to-midpoint length at 61mm, and the parts are intended to locate at the front and rear CVD positions. All supplied hardware is pre-assembled, and the maker recommends medium-strength threadlocker on the set screws to keep the assembly secure under normal hobby use.

Installation notes: confirm fitment on your MINI XRT VXL 3S prior to final assembly, torque set screws to factory-recommended values for CVD couplers, and inspect for clearance with suspension travel and wheel hubs when first fitting.

As a direct-fit aftermarket option for the TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S, this 4140 carbon steel driveshaft set focuses on stronger wear resistance and maintained driveline engagement when steering angles and suspension travel increase, making it a practical swap for hobby maintenance and light performance tuning.
