This aftermarket 12pcs set is an RC-scale drivetrain upgrade designed for the TRAXXAS MAXX MONSTER TRUCK platform, focused on improved durability and finer tuning of wheel drive under load. The assembly swaps a cross-head style axle joint for a CVD swing joint to deliver smoother straight-line power and cleaner angled load transfer while preserving the original drivetrain geometry.
Key technical details include a hardened steel joint mated to a 6061 T6 aluminum body, with the axle shaft diameter increased from 6mm to 8mm to withstand higher torsional loads while keeping weight reasonable. The adjustable construction allows setup changes to suspension linkage behaviour and toe under load, and compatible 8x16x5 bearings are supplied to match the thicker shaft.
Installation notes: the kit is intended as a drop-in replacement where this CVD form factor is used on TRAXXAS MAXX parts. Fit using the supplied fasteners and bearings, follow standard RC workshop practice, torque set screws to specification, and confirm free rotation and full suspension travel before running.

A practical upgrade for hobbyists wanting a tougher, tuneable drivetrain on the TRAXXAS MAXX MONSTER TRUCK platform, balancing strength and adjustability while remaining an RC-scale replacement part.
