Built for Vintage XT8 Handling

The XRAY 355481 XT8 CVD Universal Central Drive Shaft Front is engineered for use on XT8 models, offering a precise fit and consistent performance. Made from Hudy Spring Steel, it reduces unnecessary mass while still delivering the strength expected by experienced builders.

Why Hudy Spring Steel Works Well

Hudy Spring Steel is widely used in the hobby for parts that need high resilience. Its blend of toughness and spring characteristics helps the shaft tolerate impacts and repeated loading with less chance of premature failure.

Balanced Design for Track Use

Careful machining reduces excess weight without weakening critical sections, resulting in a part that behaves predictably under load. That balance translates to more controlled steering input and improved durability during regular use.

Can this shaft be used in modified XT8 builds?

How should I look after the shaft between events?

Clean off dirt, inspect the joints and cups for wear, and relube the moving surfaces to prevent corrosion and maintain smooth operation.

Is any special maintenance required for Hudy Spring Steel?

No special treatment is needed beyond regular inspection and lubrication. Avoid deep impacts and replace the shaft if you notice deformation or unusual play.
