I know for sure that I post it in one here that you can use wheely bar with the rpm mount, but I think you did not noticed it. Here is an picture of mine with the rpm mount and 2 wd wheely bar Edited September 2, 2021 by No brains 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tingting44 Posted September 7, 2021 Author Share Posted September 7, 2021 had a blast earlier for the 1st time in ages, started feeling weird like loose clutch or gear stripping, but oh no, i just found out what it actually was 🤣 a cheeky driveshaft, have had a thought about upgrading them but to be honest im so impressed with these stock shafts ive had since new i really am, so ill be replacing with stock, if it keeps happening then its another story but these are beasts from my experience 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tingting44 Posted September 12, 2021 Author Share Posted September 12, 2021 Something's not right here, replaced the same driveshaft... Some problem, rear left driveshaft has snapped, what could be causing this? Slipper clutch too tight maybe? An annoying problem as never had problems with the stocks before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tingting44 Posted September 12, 2021 Author Share Posted September 12, 2021 also last time i replaced the entire driveshaft for £14, im trying to find the yokes by themself, would these fit the rustler 4x4? or any upgraded yokes you guys can recommend? https://www.modelsport.co.uk/product/traxxas-differential-output-yokes-slash-stampede-4x4-39871 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 (edited) I dont know how your driveshafts have lasted so long, I was suprised by your positive comments about them. Ive had 6 or so 4x4 platform and the stock shafts have always broke within a run or so? Ive never heard anyone talk positive about them. Theyre fine for brushed models Id maybe stop buying Green stuff and buy some Proper driveshafts? 😉 Edited September 12, 2021 by Kpowell911 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are expensive and I don't know how they are, I use the xo-01 driveshafts on mine and they are good, run more then 20 packs trough the car on 3s lipo with an big motor and they are fine, but you need the knuckles and rear hubs and 12mm hex to do the upgrade so that is expensive to, if I where you and you could find the tekno driveshaft you better of buying them they are cheaper then the traxxas ones and seem to be very good. I went for the xo-1 shaft because I made a mistake thought they sell in pairs so I bought one for the front and rear, when they arrived I noticed that they where sold as a single driveshaft if I new that I had bought the tekno ones.

Tingting44 Posted September 21, 2021 Author Share Posted September 21, 2021 Thanks for the input mate, if I recal I had the tekno shafts for my erevo many years ago, never had any problems with them, I’ll defo look into these for my first choice, thanks a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tingting44 Posted September 22, 2021 Author Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) Can’t find any tekno shafts apart from the states, too long wait time for me and import tax 😞 think i may have to be the test subject for these new Traxxas shafts 🧐 edit, now ordered lol, exciting Edited September 22, 2021 by Tingting44 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 From the UK I think the Traxxas ones are your only bet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
