These should be a dollar a piece. That's all I have say
Better use Extreme Heavy Duty shafts than these. But it’s only my opinion
These work great for the Ruckus! use a #10 drill bit to bore out the yokes and wheels and you have a heavier duty drive shaft for a brushless upgrade on your Ruckus.
Absolute crap, Break every time you try to run them. Upgrade to mip or traxas steel shafts, you will never break one again. Absolutely worth the money
On one hand these are great for the money. On the other hand they brake when bashing. However, I haven't found anything else that is so much better it warrants the price. So, just pick up some extras of these and bring them to the field.
Reviewers largely agree that these rear driveshafts break frequently, especially under heavy bashing, racing, or brushless power, with breakage at the yokes and pin notches cited. Several describe them as affordable and useful as spares, and one finds them adequate for lower-power or low-traction use. Some reviewers say they are not meaningfully heavier duty than the original shaft. Multiple reviewers recommend aftermarket alternatives such as MIP or Traxxas steel shafts, and one suggests boring out the yokes with a #10 drill bit as a modification. Opinions on value are mixed, with some calling the price fair and others saying it is too high.
