Reduce binding on XV-02 with 37mm double cardan shafts

The Tamiya 22054 - 37mm Drive Shafts for Double Cardan Joint (2pcs) OP-2054 are made to deliver steadier torque transfer on the XV-02 chassis. By dividing angular movement across two joints these shafts cut down on binding and vibration, supporting more predictable handling and longer component life.

Which setups are compatible

These 37mm drive shafts match the XV-02 layout and are compatible with many Hop-Up parts. They follow the standard 37mm universal length so they integrate easily into stock or lightly modified drivetrains with the correct bearings and joint casings.

  • Item 42218: Axle Shaft for Double Cardan Joint Shaft (2pcs.)
  • Item 42219: Joint Casing for Double Cardan Joint Shaft (2pcs.)
  • Item 42220: 1050 Ball Bearing (3mm Thick, 2pcs.)
  • Item 42221: Cross Joint for Double Cardan Joint Shaft (2pcs.)
In most stock XV-02 setups no differential modification is needed. Verify that the bearing thickness and axle bearings match the listed parts to avoid misalignment.
Yes, the double cardan design copes better with large steering angles than single joint shafts, reducing thrust on other drivetrain components during sharp turns.
Look for play in the joint, increased vibration under drive, or uneven tyre spin. If you see excessive movement or noise, replace the cross joint and check the 1050 bearings.
They are a solid hop-up for smoother driveline behaviour. For competition, pair them with quality bearings and regular maintenance to ensure consistent performance.
