Its not a bad idea to get some spare driveshafts, as out of the 3 22-4's at my club, we have probably broken 4 rear drive shafts and 3 fronts.
Losi themselves have brought out a CVA kit (same as CVD), but when I last looked, it was yet to hit British shores. ANd i have not looked if the CVA kit comes with the hexes you seek!! |
I found the drive shaft sheers off at the thread on the rear. I broke 2 on 1 day, but after that they were fine. There is no comparison between UJ and CVD in terms of durability.
