TRAXXAS X-MAXX 8S #45 Hardened Front/Rear Wheel Joints STXM8039 by GPM  [STXM8039]

Durable wheel joints for high-power setups

This pair of wheel joints is a scale replacement made for TRAXXAS X-MAXX 8S cars running high-power brushless systems. They form the connection between the axle case and the front or rear CVD, reducing slack and improving load capacity in the driveline.

The component walls are increased to 1.5mm and the shaft pin diameter is 0.5mm larger than stock, while the outer diameter grows from 17mm to 18mm to deliver better torque transfer. These changes target improved durability and a snug CVD interface without modifying ride geometry.

Fitting guidance: the joints replace the original part where the driveshaft meets the axle case and CVD. You will need to disassemble the axle housing and CVD; standard RC tools and thread locker are recommended. Supplied as a 2pcs set for one axle position.

Use these hardened #45 steel joints when you need a stronger, direct replacement for the X-MAXX CVD interface while keeping original axle geometry intact.
