Roadside RC's video: Traxxas X-Maxx Bent Driveshaft Solution The Brace Install

This is something I have always struggled with in my Traxxas X-Maxx - the center driveshaft will bent on large jumps - especially if you actually land them flat! It seems the whole chassis flexes and bends the center driveshaft. Enter "The Brace" - a precision machined piece of aluminum that helps to support that center driveshaft. I got mine from Dennis Smallbone Prints - get one of them here: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&toolid=11800&pub=5575476760&campid=5338469288&mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F373411468348 There is also a brand new V2 version! You can see it here: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?ff3=4&toolid=11800&pub=5575476760&campid=5338469288&mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F373456186065 The stock X-Maxx driveshaft it is designed to fit: https://amzn.to/3ppzXTD The Integy shaft I was using: https://amzn.to/3iHScAM In this video you will see the full install that I went through. Please note that it is designed for the factory driveshaft, not the aftermarket driveshaft I am running. That made some difference.
