Precision Engineered Centre Drive

The GPM RUS4025S centre drive shaft for the Traxxas Rustler VXL is CNC-oriented in design, combining a stainless steel 304 main shaft with aluminium 6061 T6 components to balance stiffness and weight. The thicker axle joint is specified to raise torque capacity while keeping tolerances tight for minimal drivetrain lash under load.

Technical Notes

  • Material: Stainless steel 304 provides corrosion resistance and high yield strength for the main rotating element.
  • Joint specification: Enlarged joint diameter allows higher load transfer and reduces the risk of deformation during hard acceleration.
  • Alloy sections: Aluminium 6061 T6 sections reduce unsprung and rotating mass without sacrificing tensile strength at connection points.
  • Finish: Offered in several anodised colours for corrosion protection and visual matching with other upgrades.

Packing includes

  • Drive Shaft – 1pc
  • Screw Shaft 4x4 – 2pcs
  • Silicon O-Ring 4x2.5 – 2pcs

Compatible Models

  • Traxxas Rustler VXL

Yet another fantastic set of parts from GPM Iv really been able to have a lot of fun upgrading essentially everything on my new rustler. The parts are so accurate are smooth and immaculate. Great shipping too and well packaged

What are the recommended torque limits for installation screws?

Use manufacturer recommended torque for the Rustler VXL hardware; avoid over-tightening to prevent distorting the aluminium mating surfaces while ensuring secure clamping.

How does the joint geometry affect driveline efficiency?

A thicker, properly machined joint reduces micro flex at load transitions, which lowers energy loss through the driveline and improves repeatable power delivery.

Maintenance recommendations for longevity?

Inspect the O-rings and screws regularly, remove grit from joints, and apply a light lubricant to contact areas to preserve fit and prevent galling between steel and aluminium surfaces.
