Reinforced front CVDs and knuckle arms

This 12pcs front axle upgrade is designed for Traxxas Slash 4x4 applications, offering reinforced components to preserve steering geometry after hard use. The kit blends hardened 45# steel contact points with 6061 T6 aluminium parts to strike a balance between toughness and controlled weight.

Component overview: the CVD shafts incorporate hardened 45# steel mating pieces paired with aluminium 6061 T6 elements, while knuckle arms are precision-machined from 6061 T6 aluminium for improved wear life. The central axle area is increased to a 6mm section to absorb impacts from rough landings, and spring steel hexes secure the hub interface under load. Bearings supplied are sized for smooth wheel rotation.

Setup guidance: use the multiple knuckle arm mounting holes to alter tie rod angle for desired ackermann and steering throw. When fitting, verify spline engagement and bearing seating, then recheck wheel alignment after a short test run. The stiffer axle and hardened mating surfaces help the assembly resist bending and keep steering response consistent over uneven surfaces.

A practical upgrade for Slash 4x4 operators who need stronger CVD elements and stable knuckle mounting for demanding off-road runs.

What parts are in the kit?

The kit includes front CVD assemblies, machined knuckle arms, bearings, spring steel hexes and the necessary pins and set screws as a 12 piece front axle set.

Do I need to change wheel alignment after fitting?

Yes, it is good practice to check and correct toe and camber after installation and again after the first run to account for settling in.

Will these parts increase front-end stiffness?

The thicker 6mm axle section and hardened interfaces increase structural stiffness and reduce the chance of deformation under impact loading.

Are these suitable for high-speed bashing?

They are intended to handle the stresses of aggressive driving; still, inspect parts regularly and replace bearings or hexes if wear is noticed.
