Technical overview of front and rear CVD shafts

This front and rear constant velocity drive shaft pair is specified for TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx applications and is identified as model TXM12160S. Constructed in Steel#45 as referenced in the product name, the pair is supplied to replace worn or damaged CVD outputs in the X-Maxx drivetrain without altering gear ratios or electronic settings.

The shafts serve as direct replacement components for routine drivetrain service and tuning swaps: remove the wheel hub assembly, replace bent or fatigued outputs, inspect hexes and bearing condition during the task, and verify spline engagement and clamp torque on reassembly. Installation requires standard hand tools and follows typical X-Maxx maintenance procedures.

When fitted correctly the TXM12160S pair restores drivetrain stiffness and reduces endplay that can degrade handling and power transfer. Check adjoining drive cups, bearings and retaining hardware for wear and correct torque to ensure predictable long term performance.

Specifications

  • Item TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx Steel#45 Front/Rear CVD Drive Shaft - 1pr
  • Material Steel#45
  • Model Number TXM12160S
  • Compatibility TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx

Use TXM12160S Steel#45 CVD drive shafts for targeted drivetrain repairs and to restore consistent torque delivery on TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx vehicles.

Inspect spline faces for wear, verify bearing smoothness and wheel hex integrity, and confirm clamp screws are not rounded or damaged before installing the new shafts.
Slide the shaft into the drive cup and rotate slowly while observing engagement; there should be full seating without binding and an even clamp pressure when tightened.
Perform a bench roll and a short low-speed run to confirm there is no binding, then recheck clamp torque and overall alignment before normal operation.
If bearings show any play or roughness it is good practice to replace them when fitting new CVDs to avoid accelerated wear and ensure reliable drivetrain behaviour.
