New Traxxas parts... - RC-Monster Forums

squeeforever · **New Traxxas parts... -** 12.22.2006, 03:05 PM

Sup guys...I was just reading through the new RC Car Action I got today and was kinda disappointed...There wasn't much new stuff...But on the back cover, Traxxas has a new add (title is "Beauty for your Beast") and I saw new products that aren't even on there website...They now have CV driveshafts for for the F/C/R of the Maxx trucks. They basically look like the ones for the Jato. I think they might be good if you want to run RPM arms since they don't appear to have a cup/bone design...They also have some new red aluminum turnbuckle tubes like the ones for the Revo...I think the products look fairly promising...I would assume the CV shafts will fit the Revo as well, but I'm not positive...There might be a slight difference in the lengths of the two (Maxx and Revo) that isn't noticable with the sliders...

I got the same issue, I have not yet looked at it though. sounds prmising. I think the Jato cvd's I have, have the cups into the diff like the UE style though.

Cool. Sounds like traxxas is getting more into other stuff for rc.

Which is good. They are good at supplying items, and they have a pretty good service department too.

Yeah it is a good thing. The more choices the better.

A better shot? That's pretty damn good Leroy, i must say! pdf! Zoom capable and all!:004: :005: :032:

LOL! I think Leroy was talking about your first pic....

These CVshafts look pretty sweet! i am curious what construction they use. so far it looks promising; the thing with the 3.3 shafts on my maxx; i can't use the powerstrokes; they rub against the thick shaft, pretty bad..

If i dig up that number on towers, they only cost 66 dollars/4 pcs. (hard to believe?)
