Slimline front middle shaft for RX8E performance

Replace the stock component with the XRAY 345713 - RX8E lightweight front middle shaft to cut unnecessary rotating mass on your RX8E. CNC-machined from HUDY Spring Steel, it reduces inertia while retaining the toughness needed during aggressive running. The result is snappier throttle response and improved handling stability.

Proven HUDY Spring Steel toughness

Engineered from HUDY Spring Steel, this shaft handles repetitive stress at contact zones and helps limit wear transfer to nearby bearings. The robust material choice makes it suitable for frequent driving and competitive use.

Engineered for precise alignment

Designed to slip into the RX8E front middle shaft holder with accurate tolerances, the XRAY 345713 simplifies fitment and ensures consistent front drivetrain geometry. That precision supports predictable steering and decreased drivetrain lash.

Specifications

  • Compatibility: RX8E Series
  • Design: Lightweight and wear resistant

The XRAY 345713 is a straightforward upgrade for RX8E owners wanting a lightweight, durable front middle shaft that helps sharpen on-track behaviour.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Will the lighter shaft change handling balance?

Yes, reducing rotating mass at the front can make the car feel more responsive under acceleration and reduce front-end inertia during direction changes.

Is grease required during installation?

Applying a light, appropriate lubricant to mating surfaces and bearings is recommended to reduce friction and extend component life.

Can I use this on a modified RX8E?

In most cases yes, but verify that your modified front middle shaft holder dimensions match the OEM RX8E specifications to ensure proper fit.

Does it require other upgrades to work well?

It pairs well with tuned suspension and quality bearings; replacing worn bearings and checking drivetrain alignment will let you fully benefit from the lighter shaft.
