TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S 4140 Steel Front & Rear Dog-Bone Driveshafts XRTM6162 by GPM  [XRTM6162]

Replacement 4140 dog-bone driveshafts for MINI XRT

This replacement set is made for the TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S and supplies front and rear 4140 carbon steel driveshafts plus the matching drive cups and set screws. The dog-bone CVD design is intended to maintain consistent torque transfer across 1/24-1/18 scale drivelines used in hobby applications.

The shafts feature a black hardening surface treatment that increases resistance to wear and improves durability over many stock CVD materials. The CVD format permits larger steering angles while keeping engagement through suspension travel, which helps preserve driveline contact on rough terrain.

Supplier measurements indicate a front end-to-midpoint length of 62mm and a rear of 61mm, with parts meant for the front and rear CVD positions. All supplied hardware comes pre-assembled, and the maker recommends medium-strength threadlocker on the set screws to keep assemblies secure during normal use.

Fitment advice: confirm compatibility with your MINI XRT VXL 3S before final installation, follow factory torque recommendations for CVD couplers, and check for clearance between the driveshafts and hubs when steering fully.

Offered as a direct-fit aftermarket alternative for the TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S, this 4140 carbon steel driveshaft set is focused on enhanced surface durability and steady driveline engagement during increased steering and suspension movement, suitable for routine servicing and modest performance tweaks.
