LOSI 5IVE-TE 3.0 152mm Steel Front and Rear CVD Shafts Upgrade for 1/5 Desert Truck - 5T3/152F/RS by GPM  [5T3/152F/RS]

High-strength CVD shafts for LOSI 5IVE trucks

This GPM aftermarket replacement set provides front and rear constant velocity shafts tailored to LOSI 1/5 5IVE-series desert trucks. The components are formed from 4140 steel and measure 152mm pin-to-pin to match original step-in locations while delivering a thicker cross section than some OEM pieces.

Important hardware details from the source: the set replaces factory part LOS-3705, increases the dogbone diameter to 8.5mm from 7mm, and removes the locating pin to improve the section strength. Two CVD shafts are included, intended as front and rear replacements.

Tuning and application notes: these shafts are suited to 1/5 scale 4WD desert trucks where increased torsional capacity is necessary—typical when running larger motors, hotter ESC settings, or abrasive off-road terrain. Confirm wheel hex and differential cup engagement while installing to ensure full articulation and avoid interference.

When you need a steel replacement that keeps the original 152mm spacing but ups section thickness and removes the locating pin, this GPM kit delivers those changes; always verify hub and diff cup fit before finalising installation.
