TRAXXAS SLASH 4X4 Rear CVD Universal Swing Shaft by GPM SSLA1277RST  [SSLA1277RST]

Rear CVD swing shaft for Slash 4X4

This steel rear CVD universal swing shaft is an RC-scale replacement part intended for TRAXXAS SLASH 4X4 platforms. The component combines a machined steel shaft with a spring steel cup joint to maintain reliable articulation in the rear drivetrain under hobby-level loads.

Fitment and role: the shaft replaces the stock rear CVD swing shaft to reduce flex and wear in the rear drivetrain, improving consistency during aggressive throttle and suspension movement. It is designed to interface with existing Slash 4x4 differential and axle connections without altering motor, ESC, or suspension geometry.

Installation notes: inspect existing pins and bearings before fitting, verify correct orientation of the cup joint, and torque fasteners to the factory recommendations for the Slash 4x4. After installation, check for binding through the full travel of the suspension and rotate the drivetrain by hand to confirm smooth engagement.

Tuning and maintenance: this steel shaft is intended to be a durable option for hobby use; keep cup joints clean and periodically check for play at the joint and spline. Replace worn cups or shafts if slop appears, and use compatible grease on spline interfaces to extend service life.

Use this GPM replacement when seeking a more robust rear CVD shaft for Slash 4x4 builds, following standard maintenance and installation checks to ensure reliable drivetrain performance.
