Key Features
- 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction — These driveshafts are manufactured from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium, which offers an exceptional strength-to-weight ratio that is essential for RC vehicles that demand reliable performance across varied terrain without unnecessary weight penalty.
- Green Anodised Finish — The professional anodised coating provides corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal, protecting the aluminium from the elements whilst giving your TRX-4M a striking visual upgrade that looks fantastic both on and off the track.
- Female Centre Design — The female centre configuration is specifically engineered to work in harmony with the #9751 heavy-duty metal centre driveshafts, creating a durable drivetrain system that can handle the demands of crawling and off-road bashng.
- Front and Rear Included — This set includes both front and rear centre driveshafts, so you get a complete upgrade to your vehicle's drivetrain system without needing to purchase multiple items separately.
- TRX-4M High Trail Specific — These shafts are precision-fitted for 1/18 TRX-4M vehicles with a 162mm wheelbase, ensuring perfect fitment and performance without modification or guesswork when installing on your crawler.

Technical Performance
Manufactured to Traxxas's exacting standards, these centre driveshafts represent a significant performance upgrade from standard components. The 6061-T6 aluminium alloy is renowned throughout the RC and engineering industries for its superior combination of strength, lightweight properties, and machinability. The anodised coating is not merely decorative—it provides essential protection against oxidation and corrosion, which is particularly important for RC vehicles that may encounter wet conditions or moisture exposure during outdoor use. The female centre design has been engineered to accept the #9751 metal centre driveshafts, creating a hybrid drivetrain system that maximises both durability and performance. For TRX-4M High Trail crawlers with the 162mm wheelbase configuration, these extended shafts improve the vehicle's weight distribution and drivetrain geometry, resulting in smoother power delivery and reduced vibration during operation. The precision manufacturing tolerances ensure that these components integrate seamlessly with your existing TRX-4M drivetrain, providing enhanced reliability during extended bashng sessions or competitive crawling events. If you're running your TRX-4M High Trail regularly on challenging terrain, upgrading to these aluminium centre driveshafts is a worthwhile investment in longevity and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Will these driveshafts fit my standard TRX-4M? — No, these centre driveshafts are specifically designed for TRX-4M High Trail models with a 162mm wheelbase. They are not compatible with the standard TRX-4M. Always verify your vehicle's wheelbase before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
- What do I need to use these driveshafts? — These female centre driveshafts must be used in conjunction with the #9751 metal centre driveshafts to create a complete hybrid drivetrain system. You cannot use these alone without the corresponding metal components.
- Why upgrade to aluminium centre driveshafts? — Upgrading from plastic to aluminium centre driveshafts provides several benefits: improved strength and durability for demanding terrain, reduced flex in the drivetrain for more predictable handling, extended component lifespan during frequent use, and a premium appearance that enhances your vehicle's visual appeal.
- Is the green anodised finish durable? — Yes, the anodised coating is professionally applied and provides excellent corrosion resistance. The anodised surface protects the aluminium from oxidation and maintains its appearance through regular use, though like any anodised component it may show minor surface marks with heavy use.
- Are these genuine Traxxas parts? — Yes, absolutely. These are genuine Traxxas OEM components manufactured to the company's specifications. RC Model Shop is an authorised Traxxas retailer, so all parts sold are authentic and backed by Traxxas warranty coverage.
- Will these improve my TRX-4M's performance? — These driveshafts will enhance overall drivetrain durability and consistency rather than dramatically increasing speed. You'll notice improved handling precision, reduced vibration, and greater reliability during technical crawling sessions.
