Key Features
- Composite Material Construction — The driveshafts are manufactured from composite materials that deliver exceptional durability whilst remaining lightweight, making them ideal for both street bashing and off-road running where impact and stress are common concerns.
- Precision Moulded Sliders — Each driveshaft is precision moulded as a complete slider assembly, ensuring perfectly matched tolerances and smooth power transfer from the gearbox to the rear axles without binding or slippage that could reduce acceleration and cornering performance.
- High-Quality Steel Cross Pins — The driveshaft joints feature dependable steel cross pins that provide reliable torque transmission and resist the wear and tear associated with aggressive driving, racing applications, and repeated impacts during bash sessions.
- Pre-Assembled for Instant Installation — Both driveshafts arrive fully assembled and ready to fit directly into your vehicle, eliminating the need for time-consuming component assembly and allowing you to get your RC car back into action quickly and with confidence.
- Genuine ARRMA Component — As an official ARRMA spare part, these driveshafts are engineered to exact OEM specifications, guaranteeing perfect fitment and performance with your INFRACTION 223S or INFRACTION 3S BLX models.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA Composite Slider Rear Driveshaft Set represents a significant advancement in drivetrain durability for 1/8 scale high-performance RC vehicles. Composite construction provides the ideal material balance for demanding applications—lighter than metal alternatives, yet strong enough to handle the power delivery from brushless motors typical in modern ARRMA trucks. The precision-moulded slider design ensures concentricity and smooth engagement with both the gearbox output and the rear differential, eliminating vibration and maximising mechanical efficiency. The integrated steel cross pins are hardened and engineered to resist shear forces, particularly during hard acceleration or when executing aggressive turns at speed. This assembly method ensures zero play between components, delivering crisp throttle response and predictable handling characteristics whether you're street bashing at high speed or navigating technical terrain. The durable composite material resists UV degradation and remains flexible enough to absorb minor impacts without cracking, unlike brittle plastic alternatives. Installation involves simple bolt-down fitment to your INFRACTION platform, with no special tools or expertise required.
