Overview
The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Slider Shafts (2) Z-ARA311148 are precision-engineered replacement drivetrain components specifically designed for the ARRMA 1/10 Kraton 4X4 4S V2 and ARRMA 1/10 Outcast 4X4 4S V2 brushless RC monster trucks and stunt trucks. Whether you're a seasoned RC car UK enthusiast or someone who enjoys weekend bashing with high-performance ready to run RC vehicles, maintaining your drivetrain with genuine ARRMA spare parts is essential for keeping your truck running at peak performance. These CVD driveshaft slider shafts represent ARRMA's commitment to durability and smooth operation, making them an indispensable replacement part for anyone who regularly puts their RC truck through its paces.
Constant velocity (CVD) drivetrain systems are the gold standard in high-performance RC vehicles, allowing for smooth power delivery at extreme angles without the grinding or binding that can occur with standard driveshafts. The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Slider Shafts are manufactured using a combination of tough composite materials and high-grade steel components, ensuring that your brushless RC monster truck maintains consistent drive characteristics whether you're accelerating on flat ground or navigating challenging terrain. These shafts are critical components that directly affect how your RC vehicle performs, and having quality replacement parts on hand is a smart investment for any RC hobbyist in the UK who wants to keep their truck running smoothly.
If you've experienced wear or damage to your existing driveshafts, or if you're looking to maintain your ARRMA Kraton 4S or Outcast 4S in top condition, this genuine spare part from ARRMA is exactly what you need. The precision manufacturing ensures perfect fitment and optimal performance, allowing you to get back to enjoying your high-speed RC truck without compromise.
Key Features
- Precision composite construction — The sliding drive shafts are precision manufactured from tough composite material, which provides a smooth operation and reduces stress on the drivetrain components, resulting in longer component life and more consistent performance across all driving conditions in your RC car UK experience.
- Molded steel CVD balls for durability — Strong steel CVD balls are molded directly into both the male and female drive shafts, providing ultimate durability and ensuring that the constant velocity joints maintain their integrity even under extreme loads and high-speed driving, which is essential for brushless RC trucks that generate significant power.
- Supplied as a matched pair — This product includes two CVD driveshaft slider shafts, providing you with complete front or rear axle replacement capability, ensuring balanced drivetrain performance across your entire RC monster truck.
- Genuine ARRMA spare part — As an official ARRMA component, these shafts are engineered to exact specifications and will integrate seamlessly with your existing ARRMA RC vehicle, maintaining the precision and performance characteristics that ARRMA's engineering team designed into your truck.
- Compatible with multiple ARRMA models — These shafts work with the ARRMA Kraton 4X4 4S V2 BLX Speed Monster Truck RTR and ARRMA Outcast 4X4 4S V2 BLX Stunt Truck RTR, making them a versatile spare part for ARRMA enthusiasts running either platform.
Technical Performance
The ARRMA CVD Driveshaft Slider Shafts represent a significant engineering achievement in high-performance RC drivetrain technology. These components are specifically engineered for the demands of brushless 4S LiPo-powered vehicles, which deliver substantially more power and torque than traditional brushed motors. The combination of tough composite slider shafts paired with molded-in steel CVD balls creates a drivetrain system that can handle the extreme forces generated by the ARRMA Kraton 4S V2 and Outcast 4S V2 brushless RC monster trucks. The constant velocity joint design is critical for maintaining smooth power delivery when your RC truck is operating at extreme suspension angles, such as when climbing obstacles or cornering at high speed. The precision manufacturing tolerances ensure that each shaft meets exacting standards, meaning that when you replace worn or damaged shafts, your vehicle will perform exactly as ARRMA intended. The steel CVD balls are permanently molded into the drive shaft bodies, eliminating the risk of ball loss or separation that can occur with older ball-and-cup designs. This engineering approach has become the standard in modern high-performance RC vehicles because it delivers superior reliability and smoother operation compared to traditional slider shaft designs. Whether you're driving your ready to run RC truck on loose terrain, hard-packed surfaces, or through water, these shafts have been proven in the field by ARRMA's engineering team and the global RC community.

What You Need to Complete
- This is a replacement spare part for ARRMA 1/10 Kraton 4X4 4S V2 and Outcast 4X4 4S V2 models. It works with the part reference #ARA311147 and is designed as a direct replacement component. No additional items are required to install these shafts into a compatible ARRMA RC truck.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these CVD driveshaft slider shafts compatible with my ARRMA RC truck? — Yes, these shafts (Z-ARA311148) are specifically engineered for the ARRMA 1/10 Kraton 4X4 4S V2 BLX Speed Monster Truck RTR and the ARRMA 1/10 Outcast 4X4 4S V2 BLX Stunt Truck RTR in both standard and special colour editions. If you own either of these brushless RC monster trucks or stunt trucks, these genuine ARRMA spare parts are the correct replacement components for your vehicle.
- What is the difference between these CVD driveshafts and standard driveshafts? — CVD driveshafts feature constant velocity joints with molded steel balls that allow smooth power delivery at extreme suspension angles, which is essential for high-performance RC trucks. Standard driveshafts cannot flex as smoothly at extreme angles, leading to grinding, binding, and premature wear. The CVD design in these ARRMA shafts is the superior choice for any brushless RC vehicle, particularly 4S LiPo-powered trucks that generate significant torque.
- How often should I replace my CVD driveshaft slider shafts? — With normal use, quality CVD shafts like these ARRMA components can last through many seasons of driving. However, if you notice grinding noises, vibration, or a loss of smoothness in your drivetrain, it's time to replace them. Regular inspection after heavy use or crashes will help you identify when replacement is necessary. Having spare shafts on hand ensures you won't be without your ready to run RC truck when you need it.
- Will these shafts improve my RC truck's performance? — If your existing shafts are worn or damaged, replacing them with these genuine ARRMA components will restore your truck to its original performance specifications. You'll notice smoother acceleration, more consistent handling, and reduced drivetrain noise. Even if your current shafts aren't visibly damaged, upgrading to fresh components periodically is good maintenance practice for any serious RC car UK enthusiast.
- Is this suitable for beginners? — These are replacement spare parts intended for users who already own an ARRMA Kraton 4S V2 or Outcast 4S V2 RC truck. Driveshaft replacement requires basic mechanical knowledge and simple tools. If you're new to RC trucks, we recommend having an experienced RC enthusiast help with installation, or contact our team at RC Model Shop for guidance.
