Race-grade lightweight axle shaft for XRAY X1/X10

The XRAY 375017-L Lightweight Rear Gear Differential Axle Shaft is aimed at drivers wanting a noticeable improvement in rotational balance for their 1/10 pan car or formula chassis. Manufactured from HUDY Spring Steel, the shaft combines toughness with a well tuned mass distribution to reduce vibration and promote smoother power delivery.

Performance gains from lower rotating mass

With its lightweight profile the shaft reduces rotational inertia, helping with acceleration and mid-corner drive. It replaces the earlier Axle Shaft #375017 and is compatible with Gear Diff #374901 for 1/10 Formula and Gear Diff #374902 for 1/10 Pan Car configurations.

What to expect for longevity

While the gear differential arrangement improves handling, it can show different wear behaviour compared with a traditional ball differential. If you need the longest possible service life, a standard ball diff could be the better option.
Remark :
Due to limited stock availability, please notice that some XRAY items may have to order from the factory and the ready time is around 4-6 weeks. Customer purchases the item is assumed to accept the waiting time which allows us to order directly from the manufacturer if the item is out of our warehouse.

Is installation straightforward for hobbyists?

Yes. Installation follows the same steps as the original axle shaft since the 375017-L is a direct replacement for #375017 and works with the listed gear diffs.

Does the shaft need special break-in?

A short period of moderate running is advisable to seat components and confirm alignment. After initial use, re-check for any play or unusual wear and verify diff oil choice.

Can I pair this shaft with a heavy diff oil?

You can, but remember that oil weight affects the diff behaviour. Experiment with oil grades to match the reduced rotating mass for the driving style and surface you run on.
