Traxxas Aluminum Center Driveshaft, 214mm, Blue (6855)
Upgrade your 4WD driveline with the high-performance Traxxas Blue Aluminum Center Driveshaft. Engineered from lightweight, ultra-tough 6061-T6 aluminum, this heavy-duty center shaft reduces slop and efficiently transfers power directly to the front and rear axles of your favorite Traxxas RC car.
Designed as an essential durability upgrade, the Traxxas Blue Aluminum Center Driveshaft features internal splines that slide directly onto the drive assembly input shafts, completely eliminating driveline play during high-torque acceleration. Its brilliant blue anodized finish not only protects against wear but also adds custom style under the body shell, complete with a laser-etched Traxxas logo. If you are upgrading your scale model from a stock composite driveshaft, please note that the Traxxas 6888X drive hub is required for installation on compatible 4X4 models like the Slash 4X4, Ford Fiesta ST Rally, and Jato 4X4.
Is the Traxxas Blue Aluminum Center Driveshaft a direct drop-in replacement?
Yes, it drops directly onto models that already feature an aluminum center shaft. However, if you are upgrading an RC vehicle that originally came with a plastic composite driveshaft, you will also need to install the Traxxas 6888X drive hub.
Which RC cars are compatible with the Traxxas Blue Aluminum Center Driveshaft?
This aluminum driveshaft fits various 1/10 scale 4X4 Traxxas models, including the Slash 4X4 (BL-2s, VXL, Ultimate), Ford Fiesta ST Rally (BL-2s, VXL), and Jato 4X4 (BL-2s, VXL-4s).
Why should I upgrade to the Traxxas Blue Aluminum Center Driveshaft?
Aluminum driveshafts do not flex or twist under heavy motor loads, making them far more reliable when running high-output brushless motor power systems.
