As Delves has said, problems can arise when using the old UJ style rear driveshaft as the recess for the locknut on the TLR wheel doesn't allow for a nut runner and so you'll be tightening the rear wheels with a pair of long nose pliers.
CVD shafts use a smaller OD lock nut and there is sufficient room for the smaller imperial nut runner so they're OK

Other than that - it works just fine.
Was that the MIP driveshaft or a losi cvd? Jus trying to work out whats on my shelfer, as want to get another xx4 to race ;-)
