The center driveshafts on any vehicle take a whole lot of abuse when you’re out on the trail. Plastic, while inexpensive, is not the suggested material to be making these out of. Both the Axial SCX10 and Yeti use plastic drives and, when put in high stress conditions, can have a failure at this point.
STRC has designed a center drive replacement that is machined from high-grade aluminum making them more durable, less likely to twist and all around better looking!
Available in anodized black, green, silver, gun metal, orange and limited edition red.
