TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S Precision 4140 Driveshafts Front & Rear XRTM6162 by GPM  [XRTM6162]

High-durability 4140 driveshaft assembly for MINI XRT applications

This technical replacement set is specified for the TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S and contains front and rear 4140 carbon steel driveshafts with matching drive cups and set screws. The CVD-style dog-bone configuration is engineered to provide consistent torque transmission across 1/24-1/18 scale drivelines in hobbyist and light-tuning contexts.

Each shaft receives a black hardening surface treatment to increase contact hardness and resistance to wear relative to many stock CVD alloys. The CVD layout permits increased steering articulation while preserving engagement during suspension travel, reducing the chance of transient disengagement under cornering loads.

Critical dimensions from the supplier are front end-to-midpoint at 62mm and rear end-to-midpoint at 61mm, intended for installation at the front and rear CVD positions respectively. Components are pre-assembled for ease of fitment; apply a medium-strength threadlocker on set screws and torque to manufacturer-recommended values to ensure secure coupling under normal operational loads.

As an engineered aftermarket option for the TRAXXAS MINI XRT VXL 3S, the XRTM6162 4140 driveshaft set focuses on improved surface hardness and reliable driveline engagement under increased steering and suspension movement, suitable for precision hobby upgrades and extended service life considerations.
