The combination of premium aluminium construction and professional-grade anodising means you're investing in a component that will perform reliably whether you're competing in RC events or simply enjoying weekend trail running in the British countryside.
Available as a complete front and rear set, this upgrade is perfect for builders looking to customise their TRX-4M vehicles with high-visibility components that match their colour scheme. The green anodised finish is instantly recognisable on the track or trail, making your RC vehicle stand out from the crowd whilst maintaining the precision engineering Traxxas is renowned for throughout the UK RC community.
Key Features
- 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — These driveshafts are manufactured from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium alloy, which offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio that improves acceleration and handling response in your TRX-4M RC vehicle. This material choice means you get durability without the weight penalty that would otherwise affect performance.
- Green Anodised Finish — The vibrant green anodised coating provides multiple benefits including enhanced corrosion resistance, improved aesthetics, and excellent durability against the elements you'll encounter during off-road RC adventures. The anodising process creates a hardened surface that protects the aluminium from oxidation and wear.
- Front and Rear Set — This package includes both front and rear centre female driveshafts, eliminating the need for separate purchases and ensuring consistent performance across your entire drivetrain. Having a matching set guarantees balanced weight distribution and uniform power delivery.
- Designed for #9751 Metal Centre Driveshafts — These female driveshafts are engineered specifically to work in conjunction with the heavy-duty #9751 metal centre driveshafts, creating a proven transmission system that has been tested and validated by Traxxas engineers. This pairing delivers the ultimate in drivetrain reliability for demanding RC applications.
- Compatible with Multiple TRX-4M Models — Whether you operate a Ford Bronco, Land Rover Defender, Chevrolet K10, or Ford F-150 in 1/18 scale, these driveshafts are engineered to fit standard TRX-4M platforms, making them versatile upgrade options for a range of popular RC trail trucks.
- Standard TRX-4M Compatibility — These shafts are specifically designed for standard TRX-4M models with the correct wheelbase specification, ensuring a perfect fit without modification or adjustment. This compatibility eliminates guesswork and installation hassle.
Technical Performance
These Traxxas centre female driveshafts represent a significant upgrade in transmission performance for your 1/18 TRX-4M RC crawler. Constructed from premium 6061-T6 aluminium—the same material specification used in aerospace applications—these components deliver exceptional rigidity whilst maintaining minimal weight. The material science behind 6061-T6 aluminium ensures that the driveshafts can withstand the repetitive torque loads generated during aggressive off-road driving without bending or warping. The green anodised surface treatment goes beyond aesthetics; the anodising process creates a oxide layer approximately 0.0003 inches thick that significantly increases hardness and corrosion resistance. This protective coating is particularly valuable for UK-based RC enthusiasts who regularly encounter wet, muddy conditions during trail running sessions. The female design of these centre driveshafts means they interface with the corresponding male splines of the #9751 metal centre driveshafts, creating a secure mechanical connection that maintains concentricity and minimises play in the drivetrain. For 1/18 scale vehicles with standard 162mm wheelbase configurations, these shafts are dimensionally optimised to provide the correct shaft angles and clearances required for smooth power transmission and longevity during extended running sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these green driveshafts fit my TRX-4M Ford Bronco or Land Rover Defender? — Yes, these centre female driveshafts are specifically designed for all standard TRX-4M models including the Ford Bronco, Land Rover Defender, Chevrolet K10, and Ford F-150 variants. They are compatible with vehicles featuring the standard wheelbase specification and standard suspension configuration. However, they are not compatible with TRX-4M High Trail trucks, which use different drivetrain geometry and wheelbase dimensions.
- What makes 6061-T6 aluminium a better choice for RC driveshafts? — 6061-T6 aluminium is heat-treated to its peak strength condition, offering superior hardness and tensile strength compared to untreated aluminium. This makes it ideal for RC applications where driveshafts experience constant rotational stress and impact loads. The material also provides excellent machinability, allowing Traxxas engineers to achieve precise tolerances that ensure smooth operation and longevity.
- Do I need to use these with the #9751 metal centre driveshafts? — Yes, these female centre driveshafts are specifically engineered to work with the #9751 metal centre driveshafts. The pairing creates a complete drivetrain system where the female splines on these shafts interface with the male splines on the #9751 components, ensuring proper engagement and reliable power transmission.
- Will the green anodised finish fade or wear off during normal use? — The anodised finish is a permanent structural component of the aluminium surface, not a paint or coating that can peel away. With normal RC use, the anodising provides long-lasting protection against corrosion and wear. However, aggressive racing or rocky terrain may cause minor cosmetic scuffing over time, which does not affect the structural integrity or functionality of the driveshafts.
- Are these suitable for beginners to RC crawling? — These driveshafts are spare parts rather than complete systems, so they're ideal for experienced RC enthusiasts who are upgrading or maintaining their vehicles. If you're new to RC, you'll want to start with a complete TRX-4M vehicle package and then consider drivetrain upgrades like these as your skills and knowledge develop.
- What is the difference between these female centre driveshafts and the standard plastic alternatives? — Aluminium driveshafts offer superior durability, better heat dissipation, and greater resistance to bending or breaking under heavy load compared to plastic options. The 6061-T6 construction provides the strength needed for serious trail running whilst the green anodised finish adds corrosion protection—essential features for UK RC enthusiasts who run in variable weather conditions.
