Will this replace worn centre shafts on older XT8s?

Yes, it is intended as a replacement for the XT8 centre CVD and integrates with the rebuildable #355608 set for repairs.

How can I spot early wear?

Look for play in the splines, rough rotation in the joints, or visible scoring; address these signs early to avoid further drivetrain damage.

Is this suitable for competition use?

It is built from high quality Hudy Spring Steel and is appropriate for club and local competition, provided the rest of the drivetrain is set up and maintained correctly.

What maintenance should I perform after a heavy impact?

Inspect the shaft for bends or cracks, check mating parts and bearings, and replace any damaged items before running again.

Are there common upgrade routes for the XT8 drivetrain?

Typical upgrades include hardened steel diff gears, upgraded bearings and lightweight drive components like this Hudy Spring Steel shaft to balance durability and response.
