Mugen MTX5 CVD Upgrade Kit (Spring Steel) - MUGEN AM-010017 by Arrowmax  [AM-010017]

Long-wearing CVD joint for MTX5 drivetrains

This Arrowmax AM-010017 CVD universal joint set is a scale RC drivetrain replacement built for MUGEN MTX5 use, supplied as two pieces and made from spring steel to resist wear under typical RC loads. It is intended for model-level maintenance, repair, or setup adjustments and is not for full-size vehicle application.

Replace worn CVD components with this set to add a firmer, more durable link in the transmission path. Typical installation requires wheel hub removal to access the driveshaft joint, then swapping the CVD halves while verifying spline engagement and retaining hardware. Always follow your chassis manual for the correct disassembly sequence and safe handling of small parts.

For tuning, the spring steel construction reduces end play compared with softer pins, helping to stabilise throttle response and corner exit traction on both off-road and on-track layouts. Regular checks for burrs, play, and lubrication will help extend service life.

A practical replacement CVD set for Mugen MTX5 models where durable, low-play joints are needed for consistent drivetrain behaviour.
