Overview
The Traxxas Cross Pin (2 pcs) / Drive Pin (2 pcs) repair pack is an essential spare parts kit designed for RC enthusiasts in the UK who need to maintain and repair their Traxxas RC vehicles. This genuine Traxxas component set allows you to repair two complete axle shafts, making it an economical choice for weekend bashers, competitive racers, and anyone who regularly enjoys remote control cars. Whether you operate a 1/10 scale RC monster truck, an RC buggy, or any other Traxxas model that utilises cross pins and drive pins in its drivetrain, this genuine OEM parts pack will keep your RC car in peak operating condition.
Axle shaft failures are one of the most common maintenance issues faced by RC car owners in the UK and internationally. The cross pins and drive pins within your Traxxas RC vehicle's drivetrain are critical components that transmit power from the motor and transmission to the wheels. Over time, especially with aggressive driving, high-speed bashings, and competitive racing, these pins can wear, bend, or break under extreme loads. When this happens, your RC car will either refuse to drive properly or come to a complete standstill, leaving you unable to enjoy your hobby until repairs are completed. The Traxxas Cross Pin (2 pcs) / Drive Pin (2 pcs) kit provides both the cross pins and drive pins needed to fully restore two axle shafts, ensuring you can get back on the track or trail quickly.
Stocking genuine Traxxas spare parts is a smart investment for any serious RC enthusiast. Rather than waiting weeks for delivery from overseas or struggling to find compatible aftermarket alternatives, having quality OEM Traxxas components on hand means downtime is minimised and your RC driving experience remains uninterrupted. This kit is perfect for those who want to maintain their Traxxas RC vehicles properly and ensure optimal performance every time they hit the ground.

Technical Performance
The Traxxas Cross Pin and Drive Pin components represent precision-engineered mechanical parts manufactured to exact specifications by Traxxas. These pins are critical to the operation of your RC car's drivetrain system, working in conjunction with the axle shafts to transmit rotational force from the transmission to the wheels. Cross pins function as the connection points between the drive shafts and the differential, whilst drive pins secure the axles within the hub assemblies. Under normal recreational driving, these components should last a considerable time, but high-performance racing, aggressive bashing, and extreme off-road conditions can accelerate wear and degradation. When you notice your RC car pulling to one side, hearing grinding noises from the drivetrain, or losing power to one or both rear wheels, damaged or worn cross pins and drive pins are often the culprit. The engineering of these Traxxas parts ensures they meet the demands of modern RC vehicles, providing reliable performance in both casual and competitive environments. By maintaining your drivetrain with quality OEM replacement pins, you protect the integrity of your entire RC vehicle's transmission system and ensure years of reliable operation.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I know if my RC car's cross pins or drive pins need replacing? — Common signs include loss of traction in one or both wheels, pulling to one side during acceleration, grinding or clicking sounds from the rear axle, or complete loss of drive to the wheels. If you notice any of these symptoms, inspect your axle shafts for bent or damaged pins.
- Is this repair kit suitable for beginners? — Replacing cross pins and drive pins requires moderate mechanical skills and familiarity with disassembling your RC car's drivetrain. If you're new to RC vehicle maintenance, we recommend consulting your vehicle's manual or seeking guidance from experienced RC hobbyists before attempting this repair.
- Which Traxxas RC models are compatible with this pin kit? — This kit is designed for Traxxas vehicles that use standard cross pins and drive pins in their axle shaft assemblies. Most Traxxas RC cars, monster trucks, buggies, and stadium trucks use these components, but always check your specific vehicle's manual to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- How many axle shafts can this kit repair? — This pack contains enough pins to fully repair two complete axle shafts. If you have a vehicle with four-wheel drive, you may need two kits to repair all axle shafts simultaneously, or you can repair them sequentially as needed.
- Can I use aftermarket pins instead of genuine Traxxas parts? — Whilst aftermarket alternatives exist, genuine Traxxas OEM parts are engineered to exact specifications and offer the best guarantee of compatibility and durability. Using genuine components ensures your RC car performs optimally and maintains its reliability.
- Where can I buy this Traxxas Cross Pin kit in the UK? — RC Model Shop stocks this genuine Traxxas spare part and offers UK-wide delivery, providing convenient access to authentic components without the need to order from overseas retailers.
