Tekno RC EB410 77.5mm Front Universal Driveshaft (2)
About this part
Universal driveshafts excel in rough conditions and can generate additional side bite by providing additional roll in the corners. The suspension is allowed to work more efficiently when compared to the additional mechanical binding in CVA’s. This allows the vehicle to absorb bumps better with a reduced risk of “catching a rut” and flipping the car while cornering. For smoother tracks, CVA’s will produce more forward traction and support, but universals are also well suited with slight suspension setup changes (springs and oil).
The basic design of a universal driveshaft means virtually no maintenance is required and dirt and dust won’t foul the operation of the joint. These are ready to drop into your EB410 with the use of additional 8x14x4mm bearings (TKRBB08144).
Features:
- Improved handling in rough or bumpy conditions
- Increased side bite in corners
- CNC machined and black coated for wear resistance
- Lightweight and virtually maintenance-free

After installing these, I believe I can feel the car is quicker in a turn especially with S curves and the speed in between directional change is better or more responsive.
They fit is great with the recommended bearings however if you have upgraded the rear hub carriers to aluminum such as exotec hub carriers the bearing will not fit and you will have to revert back to the original plastic hub carriers before being able to use this item with the recommended bearings. I have not had the chance to run with them yet but they seem well built and sturdy. My only concern is that they can't be rebuilt so should the wear out and come apart I'd have to order a whole new set rather than replacing a pin and grub screw. Hopefully they are as ridged as they seem.
