XRAY RX8 Front Middle Shaft (Spring Steel) by Arrowmax AM-RX8-345710  [AM-RX8-345710]

Front middle shaft for XRAY RX8

This Arrowmax AM-RX8-345710 front middle shaft is offered as a spare part for XRAY RX8 scale touring cars, produced in a hollow design and specified as spring steel by the manufacturer. The listing frames the component as an alternative to the kit shaft with a claimed balance of weight and longevity.

For fit and function the shaft is intended for the RX8 front driveline where a middle/front shaft is used to transfer power through the front section of the drivetrain. In typical RC tuning practice a hollow spring steel shaft reduces rotating mass compared with solid steel of equivalent strength while preserving torsional stiffness, which affects acceleration response and driveline resilience under load.

Installation notes: this part is supplied as the replacement shaft component, confirm orientation and retaining hardware from your RX8 kit when swapping, and inspect spline/seat locations for wear during fitment. Manufacturer descriptions state improved durability and reduced mass relative to the kit shaft, those claims should be validated on the bench prior to track use.

Neutral summary: the AM-RX8-345710 provides a spring steel, hollow option for XRAY RX8 front drivetrains aimed at users pursuing a balance of reduced rotating mass and component durability, evaluate fit and performance against your kit shaft before committing to race use.
