looks like the cvds losi did. Also look quite strong joint

I've seen this style cvd's in a touring car, I can't remember which tho :lol:

They were called LCD's by Losi, and they first came out at the Bury national in 2005, when Losi Jr, Jukka and Travis came over just before the Euro's in France.

£45 per pair!? :o

Schumacker have had a glance at a kyosho price list:lol:

It could be worse, the Xray ECS driveshafts are £35 each!

Xray

They were a good idea except they fell apart if not checked before every run!:lol: I ran them on the X-5 for a while. Looks like Schumacher have dealt with that issue with collars retaining the pins - although hard to make out as I can't enlarge the photo.

I tell you what I did like, the plastic telescopic driveshafts, I always felt the flex they gave made the car feel much more forgiving.

So they probably fit all, sx2/3 and k1

which could mean same hubs/wheel fitment :D

Fingers crossed! The wheels look the same in the pic except black

You only need them on the front, unless you're planning on snapping a rear wishbone and carrying on with the run :lol:
