About the Double Cardan Joint Drive Shafts
Durable Construction
The Double Cardan Joint Front Drive Shafts are built from hardened chromoly steel, offering exceptional strength and durability. This material is engineered to withstand the rigors of extreme off-road environments, ensuring that your drive shafts maintain their integrity under heavy use. The robust construction not only extends the lifespan of the drive shafts but also provides peace of mind when pushing your rock crawler to its limits.
Double Cardan Joint
Featuring a double Cardan joint design, these drive shafts provide a constant velocity drive even at maximum steering angles. This advanced design minimizes binding and reduces the chatter that can occur with standard single-joint drive shafts, resulting in smoother operation and more consistent power delivery. This improvement is especially beneficial when navigating tight turns or rough terrain, where maintaining control and smoothness is crucial.
Ease of Installation
UpGrade RC has made the installation process simple by pre-assembling these drive shafts. This means you can spend less time in the workshop and more time out on the trails. The pre-assembled design not only simplifies the upgrade process but also ensures that the components are properly aligned and secured, offering immediate performance benefits as soon as they’re installed. Precision-engineered for a seamless fit, these drive shafts work as a direct upgrade for the standard AR45 Axles, providing easy swap-and-go installation.

CSR CSR Verified Owner Wednesday, Jul 23 2025 (2 months ago) UpGrade RC Double Cardan Joint Front Drive Shafts for AR45 Axles (2) Fun but maybe not the peak performance.
Good for going fast but I do notice the additional slop of another pin in the drivetrain. View all reviews
