Precision hardened #45 CVD assembly

This 16pc CVD set has been developed with a focus on precision and durability for high rpm operation in Traxxas X-Maxx 6S drivetrains. Hardened steel #45 components are used for the primary drive elements and the alloy hex interface has been reworked to accept a stainless steel pin through a perforated seat, improving axial retention under load.

Engineering changes from the OEM parts include increasing dogbone cross section from 5.5mm to 7mm to raise torsional stiffness and fatigue life, and revising the CVD-to-hex joint to a pinned configuration that reduces relative motion at the interface. These alterations enhance rotational stability while retaining original fitment and driveline geometry.

  • Includes Hex Adapter - 2 pcs
  • Includes Stainless Steel Screw Shaft M5x4x20 - 2 pcs
  • Includes Set Screws 5x5 - 2 pcs
  • Manual number: 7750+7737+7756

The kit is specified for use in either front or rear positions where standard CVDs endure high rotational speed, offered as a direct replacement or an upgraded component for the compatible models shown below.

Compatible Models

  • Traxxas Xmaxx 6S

Recommended for technicians and serious hobbyists replacing worn CVDs on a Traxxas X-Maxx 6S or seeking a more rigid steel joint with pinned alloy hex retention for demanding applications.

What benefits does hardened steel #45 provide?

Hardened #45 offers improved wear resistance and dimensional stability under cyclic high-speed loading compared with softer steels used in standard CVDs.

How does the pinned alloy hex improve retention?

The stainless pin through a perforated interface prevents slippage and distributes load across the hex seat, reducing fretting and movement at the joint.

Should I change my maintenance schedule?

Periodic inspection of the pin and set screws after aggressive runs is advised; re-torque set screws to spec and check for wear at splines and hex faces.

Is any machining required for fitment?

No machining is required; components are engineered for direct fit with standard hub and axle interfaces on the compatible models listed.
