- Traxxas genuine component — As original equipment manufacturer parts, these shafts are engineered to exact specifications and manufactured to the same standards as the driveshafts originally fitted to your RC car, guaranteeing compatibility and performance.
- Two pieces per pack — You receive a pair of shafts, which is ideal for replacement or upgrade, allowing you to service both sides of your drivetrain or maintain spares for continuous racing and bashing sessions.
- Durable construction — Built to withstand the forces and stresses generated by powerful brushless motors and high-torque driving, these shafts are engineered for reliability and longevity in demanding RC applications.
Technical Performance
The Traxxas GTR Long driveshafts represent precision engineering designed specifically for high-performance RC vehicles. The TiN-coating process applies a thin layer of titanium nitride to the shaft surface, creating a significantly harder and more wear-resistant finish compared to uncoated steel. This coating is particularly important in RC applications because it reduces friction, minimises wear at the connection points, and protects against corrosion from moisture and road salt — concerns that UK RC car owners regularly face when driving outdoors. The long GTR specification ensures perfect fitment and power transmission to the wheels, maintaining the efficiency of your brushless motor system and ESC. Whether your Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 is running on 3S or 4S LiPo batteries — common setups for 1/10 brushless RC trucks in the UK — these shafts are engineered to handle the torque and rotational forces involved. The two-piece kit allows you to maintain your RC car's peak performance or keep backup components ready for racing events and extended bashing sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are these shafts compatible with my Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4? — Yes, these TRX7464T shafts are specifically designed for the Traxxas Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 1/10 brushless models, including both the green and blue variants. They are genuine Traxxas components engineered to fit perfectly and deliver the performance these premium vehicles are designed for.
- What does TiN-coating mean and why does it matter? — TiN stands for titanium nitride. The coating is applied to the shaft surface to create a much harder and more wear-resistant finish. This reduces friction, minimises degradation from constant rotation, protects against corrosion from moisture and salt exposure, and extends the service life of your driveshaft significantly compared to uncoated alternatives.
- How often should I replace my driveshafts? — Driveshaft replacement depends on your driving intensity and conditions. If you're a serious RC hobbyist who races or bashes frequently, having spare shafts on hand is essential. Signs of wear include clicking sounds, loss of power transmission efficiency, or visible damage. These genuine Traxxas replacements ensure you can maintain your vehicle's peak performance.
- Why choose genuine Traxxas parts over aftermarket alternatives? — Genuine Traxxas components are engineered to exact specifications and manufactured to the highest standards. They guarantee perfect fitment, optimal performance characteristics, and reliability. Using genuine spares protects your investment in your brushless RC truck and ensures consistent performance.
- Can I use these shafts as an upgrade on other Traxxas models? — These are specifically designed for the GTR Long application on Rustler Ultimate VXL 4x4 models. For other Traxxas vehicles, you should verify compatibility with the manufacturer specifications or consult with RC specialists to ensure the correct shaft length and specification for your model.
