This replacement centre drive shaft is a precision R/C component engineered for the TRAXXAS Mini Rally VXL Ford. Manufactured from 7075-T6 alloy rod with integrated machining, it delivers improved surface integrity and dimensional accuracy versus tubular alternatives.
In operation the shaft transmits motor torque along the chassis centreline, so material selection and straightness are critical to driveline stiffness and resistance to deformation under load. This product is intended for model drivetrain use only and replaces factory part number 10858.
For correct assembly in short-shaft configurations, use this shaft with the optional slipper clutch (#10758) or the #10760-series centre differential, and install differential pinion gear #10862 when those short layouts are applied. The part is listed for the specified Mini Rally VXL Ford model below.
10858
Use this 7075-T6 centre drive shaft where higher torsional rigidity and lower transmission deformation are required, and ensure the listed companion parts are fitted for short-drive setups.
