Overview
The FTX Carnage/Outlaw Tool Steel Front CVD 2pcs (FTX6347) is an essential drivetrain upgrade for owners of FTX Carnage and Outlaw RC vehicles in the UK. These precision-engineered front constant velocity drive shafts are manufactured from tool steel, a material renowned for its exceptional strength and durability in demanding off-road conditions. Whether you're a seasoned RC enthusiast upgrading your ready to run RC truck or a dedicated basher pushing your model to the limit, these CVD shafts represent a significant performance enhancement that will transform the reliability and longevity of your RC car's drivetrain.
Constant velocity (CVD) drive shafts are a critical component in any high-performance RC vehicle, and the tool steel construction of these FTX parts ensures they can handle the stresses and impacts that come with aggressive driving on rough terrain. Unlike standard plastic or basic metal alternatives, tool steel CVDs maintain their integrity through repeated impacts, sharp turns, and high-torque acceleration, making them the ideal choice for anyone serious about their RC hobby. These front CVD shafts are specifically engineered to fit FTX Carnage 2.0 models and FTX Outlaw vehicles, providing a direct upgrade path for owners looking to improve their model's performance and reliability without requiring complete drivetrain replacement.
RC Model Shop stocks genuine FTX Carnage and Outlaw replacement parts, and these tool steel CVDs are exactly the type of quality upgrades that distinguish a well-maintained RC vehicle from one prone to frequent repairs. The 2-piece configuration allows for easy installation and maintenance, while the tool steel material ensures consistent performance session after session. If you're searching for reliable front CVD shafts for your Carnage 2.0 or Outlaw, or if you're simply looking to future-proof your drivetrain against wear and damage, this genuine FTX component is the answer.
Key Features
- Tool Steel Construction — These CVD shafts are manufactured from premium tool steel, which provides superior strength and impact resistance compared to standard materials, ensuring they withstand the rigorous demands of off-road driving and aggressive bashing without bending or breaking.
- Constant Velocity Design — The CVD joint design maintains consistent power delivery to the wheels across a full range of suspension articulation and steering angles, which is crucial for maintaining traction and predictable handling characteristics in challenging terrain.
- Front-Specific Engineering — These shafts are specifically designed for the front axle of FTX Carnage and Outlaw models, ensuring perfect fitment and optimal performance in their intended application without modification or compromise.
- 2-Piece Configuration — The two-piece setup allows for straightforward installation and disassembly, making maintenance and inspection quick and convenient, and enabling easy replacement of individual components if required.
- Genuine FTX Component — As an official FTX spare part, these CVDs are engineered to OEM specifications and ensure complete compatibility with your Carnage 2.0 or Outlaw without any fitment issues or performance compromises.
- Enhanced Durability — Tool steel CVDs significantly outlast plastic or basic metal alternatives, reducing the frequency of drivetrain maintenance and repairs and allowing you to spend more time driving and less time in the workshop.
Technical Performance
The FTX Carnage/Outlaw Tool Steel Front CVD 2pcs represents a substantial upgrade over standard drivetrain components, delivering measurable improvements in durability, reliability and overall vehicle performance. Tool steel is a specially formulated alloy that combines hardness with resilience, meaning these shafts can absorb impact energy without permanent deformation while resisting the cumulative wear that leads to play and looseness in the drivetrain. The constant velocity joint architecture ensures smooth, consistent power delivery to the front wheels regardless of suspension compression, rebound, or steering input, maintaining optimal traction whether you're climbing rocky inclines, navigating technical terrain, or launching off jumps at speed. The precision manufacturing tolerances ensure that these shafts integrate seamlessly with the existing drivetrain of FTX Carnage 2.0 and Outlaw models, with no grinding, fitting, or adjustment required. In comparison to original plastic or basic metal CVD options, tool steel shafts demonstrate significantly reduced wear rates, extended intervals between replacement, and improved resistance to the salt, moisture, and abrasive conditions commonly encountered in UK outdoor RC driving. For models like the FTX5537B and FTX5537R Carnage 2.0 brushed trucks, the FTX5539 Carnage 2.0 brushless monster truck, or the FTX5570 and FTX5571 Outlaw buggies in brushed and brushless variants, these front CVDs provide the durability foundation that allows the motor and electronics to perform at their full potential without drivetrain failure limiting your enjoyment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these front CVD shafts compatible with my FTX Carnage 2.0 or Outlaw? — Yes, these tool steel front CVDs are specifically engineered for FTX Carnage 2.0 models (both brushed FTX5537B/R and brushless FTX5539 variants) and FTX Outlaw vehicles (brushed FTX5570 and brushless FTX5571), ensuring perfect fitment and performance without modification.
- What is the advantage of tool steel CVDs over standard alternatives? — Tool steel is significantly stronger and more impact-resistant than plastic or basic metal, meaning these CVDs resist bending, cracking and permanent deformation through repeated high-stress situations, lasting considerably longer and requiring replacement far less frequently than inferior materials.
- Can I install these CVDs myself? — Yes, these are direct replacement components that install into your existing drivetrain without requiring specialist tools or expertise, making them ideal for home maintenance and upgrades, though basic mechanical knowledge of your RC vehicle is helpful.
- Why should I upgrade from standard CVDs to tool steel? — Tool steel CVDs deliver dramatically improved durability, reducing downtime due to drivetrain failure, minimising repair costs over time, and ensuring your RC vehicle remains ready for action more consistently throughout the season.
- Are these original FTX parts or third-party replacements? — These are genuine FTX original equipment (OEM) spare parts manufactured to official specifications, ensuring complete compatibility and performance alignment with your specific vehicle model.
