Front Universal Shafts Designed for XV-01 Control

The Tamiya 54515 RC XV-01 Assembly Universal Shaft (Front/2Pcs.) is a targeted upgrade for pilots who want cleaner front-end drive behaviour. Built to mate with the XV-01 front section, these shafts improve the drivetrain layout without major chassis changes.

Optimised Drivetrain Flow

By replacing dog-bone style links with universal joints, mechanical losses are reduced and the drivetrain operates with less binding. That gives smoother torque transfer and a more consistent throttle response on-track.

More Secure Wheel Contact

With the universal joints in place the front wheels keep better contact when loading the suspension, which helps stability through mid to high speed corners and during heavy braking.

Fewer On-Track Dropouts

Universal shafts sit more securely in their mounts than straight dog-bone pieces, which lowers the risk of the drive elements disconnecting during impacts or rough landings.

They are intended for standard XV-01 and the XV-01T variants. They do not fit the XV-01 TC touring conversion without further modification.
The pack includes two front universal driveshafts together with the matching wheel axles and cross joint pieces required for assembly.
For most modders the swap is straight forward. Follow a step-by-step removal of the old shafts and fit the universals, checking alignment and retention as you go.
Clean the joints frequently when running on loose or wet surfaces and re-lubricate lightly to prevent grit from accelerating wear.
