Axial Yeti XL Front Steel CVD Shaft 124mm 8mm Wheel Hex YTL124FS8 by GPM  [YTL124FS8]

Reinforced front CVD for Yeti XL

This aftermarket front CVD drive shaft is a steel upgrade made for Axial Racing Yeti XL owners who want a more resilient front drivetrain component. The 124mm #45 steel shaft with an 8mm wheel hex replaces stock parts to improve torsional stiffness and reduce wear during tough off-road running.

Installation mirrors common Yeti XL front shaft swaps: remove the wheel and hub, free the stock shaft by removing necessary axle parts, then fit the replacement ensuring splines are aligned and fasteners follow factory torque. Use thread locker only where the original layout requires it and confirm wheel hex fit before hitting the track.

As a tuning item, the steel shaft cuts drivetrain flex and helps keep wheel engagement predictable under heavy throttle or rough ground. Balance this upgrade with suspension and differential settings to prevent shifting shock loads to other components.

Install this GPM steel front CVD drive shaft to gain a stiffer front drivetrain and more direct power delivery on Axial Racing Yeti XL machines, while monitoring adjacent parts for any change in wear.
