Front middle shaft option for XRAY RX8

The Arrowmax AM-RX8-345710 is supplied as a hollow spring steel front middle shaft for XRAY RX8 touring cars and is sold as a spare or upgrade to the kit component. The construction aims to reduce rotating inertia without sacrificing the stiffness needed for dependable driveline behaviour.

Intended application: this shaft installs in the RX8 front driveline to deliver torque through the front assembly. In tuning practice, hollow spring steel shafts are chosen to cut rotating mass while keeping torsional rigidity, which can help make throttle inputs feel crisper and reduce peak loads on front drivetrain parts.

Installation and care: the part is provided as the shaft only, so confirm retaining hardware and orientation from your RX8 kit when fitting, and check spline ends and seating surfaces for fit and wear. Manufacturer statements about mass savings and improved durability should be checked on the bench before competitive running.

Specifications

  • Item: Front middle shaft (hollow)
  • Material: Spring steel
  • Model Number: AM-RX8-345710
  • Compatibility: XRAY RX8

Bottom line: the AM-RX8-345710 offers a hollow spring steel choice for the XRAY RX8 front driveline that targets reduced rotating mass and retained stiffness; always validate fit and track behaviour versus the original kit shaft.

Reducing rotating weight can improve throttle response and transient behaviour, but overall handling changes depend on your full drivetrain and suspension setup.
Most riders fit and run the shaft without dynamic balancing, but if you notice vibration you can check balance and correct minor imbalances on a balancer.
Keep spline interfaces clean, use appropriate lubrication, and inspect for fretting or fatigue regularly to extend service life.
This part is intended as a replacement for the RX8 front middle shaft, but always compare dimensions and retaining methods to your kit shaft during installation.
