TRAXXAS X-MAXX 8S Front/Rear CVD Reinforcement and Wheel Hex Set TXM8170N/JT by GPM  [TXM8170N/JT]

This 10-piece set is intended for TRAXXAS X-MAXX 8S racers and hobbyists who need more robust outer shaft CVD components and a stiff, light wheel hex. Hardened #45 steel is used where joint wear concentrates, while 6061-T6 aluminum hexes reduce unsprung and rotating mass.

Contents included for verification are: CVD joint - 2 pcs, Wheel Hub Hex - 2 pcs, 3.5 steel pin - 2 pcs, Set screws 5x5 - 2 pcs, M5*4*20 screw pin - 2 pcs. These parts are for the outer shaft area of the CVD assemblies as described in the part location.

Fitting advice: these parts replace the outer shaft CVD elements; verify socket engagement and axial clearance, torque set screws to the X-MAXX hub specification, and confirm pin seating after a short shakedown. Ensure hex spline fitment with your wheel adapters before final use.

Performance notes: using #45 hardened steel at the joint faces improves resistance to wear under 8S torque. The 6061-T6 aluminum hexes help keep wheel response predictable while trimming rotating weight. Routine checks of pins and screws are recommended after high-load runs.
