This aftermarket rear drive shaft assembly is specified for the Tamiya CC02 MERCEDES-BENZ G500 platform and carries the internal reference CC2237RS. The components are intended to transmit torque from the gearbox to the rear axle on scale trail and crawler rigs and are supplied as model-grade mechanical parts.
Fabrication uses hardened steel #45 to increase resistance to bending and fatigue under trail loading, giving improved stiffness and steadier torque delivery compared with stock soft metal shafts. Supplied retainers match the original kit arrangement to secure shafts in standard CC02 rear axle housings.
Installation guidance: designed for direct replacement into compatible CC02 rear drive layouts, fitting requires disassembly of the rear axle. Use common hand tools, confirm correct shaft orientation during assembly, and verify clearance with the suspension and wheel hexes after installation.
Performance notes: the hardened construction reduces deflection under torque, which improves gear mesh stability and throttle consistency for scale off-road operation without modifying gearbox ratios or control electronics.
Includes basic kit contents as supplied: rear drive shaft - 2 pcs, 4.0 E-clips - 4 pcs.
