Technical front CVD swing shaft details for Slash 4x4

This precision steel front CVD universal swing shaft is equipped with a spring steel cup joint and is supplied as 1pr for TRAXXAS Slash 4x4 models. The component is designed for direct front drivetrain service, transmitting gearbox torque to the front wheels while permitting controlled axial and angular articulation under load.

The assembly uses a hardened steel shaft paired with a spring steel cup joint to provide robust fatigue resistance and repeatable fitment. Supplied as a matched left and right pair, the part is suitable for replacing worn front drive elements or upgrading to a steel-style CVD that maintains accurate front drive geometry.

Installation notes for technicians: ensure the shaft seats fully in the existing Slash 4x4 CVD housings and confirm unobstructed rotation. Inspect the spring steel cup joint for any signs of fatigue or deformation during routine service and verify there is no binding in the front driveline before returning the vehicle to operation.
