Just letting you know that you dont have to pop the joint apart, slide the shafts apart and you can slide a 2.0 or 2.5 down the inside to the screw and take it off that way. Less work and easier
This works out to cost £135 to do all 4 corners of the truck! I solved the issue of popped driveshafts by just backing off the slipper clutch a tiny bit. Also making sure you are off the throttle when the car lands is important as this is a big reason the shafts fail
Thank you for explained, the process the way it should be, I was scrolling so many videos and they never show how did you pull that end shaft cub on the transmission. Now I have the idea in how to pop that joint. Thanks again!
@@JayTeeRC yeah i went and bought a set of allenkeys for ten dollars just for this with my granite as it was popping driveshafts regularly. The one arrma gives you with truck is too short. Once you bend the u joint tab they don't seem as strong after if you wanted to reuse them for whatever reason. Curious to see how the cvd shafts hold up. I bought hot racing and ebay knock offs and the knock offs have been the strongest so far. I enjoy your comparison videos and content. I am Running a mamba monster 2 and castle 2650 in my granite. Heavily modded. Have a good one.
@@Wreckedekcoupe you're missing the whole point here. If these things are to be changed from the kid the kid Auto included. You crack me up with these little keyboard Warrior jokes.
FYI.... I discovered this after the fact.... The screws that secure the inner and outer u-joint halves are easily removed by inserting the allen key right into the hollow drive shaft, once the splined halves are separated. The allen key has a straight shot to the screws in this way, no need to pop the u-joint apart.
What kind and how do the tiers mount? Not useing the 17mm hex nut? The driveshafts have always been a headache for me on the 3s BLX line so I’m very intrigued!! Do to I run in the local parks a lot so I run it in the grass witch Horrizon told me was a no no for the 3s line!!
Jay Tee, i bought a set of these and had no issue installing the front pair but the rear not so well. I started with the the differential side which went as planned. Found the slot where the grub screw went and squared that away, then moved to the wheel hub and dang the devil the chingadera wont fit.
Do you no if the hotracing 10mm+ extentions will still work with those threads on the cvd and thanks on the vid to do these i been looking to get all the seperate parts since the full ones out of stock everywhere
Still no one got an answer, if the end piece of the CVD wheelaxle can be changed for Typhon wheelaxle (AR310905), so we can still use the 17mm hex? I have my Big Rock converted to the typhon hexes and I don't like going back to those crappy 14mm ones. So PLZ ANYONE??
I thought I was the only one having an issue with the granite, I bought Hot Racing rear arms. Bullet proof but 78 bucks with shipping. I was snapping the stock ones in the rear every run. No issues with any other 3s arrmas.
Hey I have been looking around for awhile and I can't find them in stock since they have been discontinued apparently. So would anyone know by chance if there is another product like this besides the hot racing one
JayTee, any idea on what parts I would need to put on the Typon 3s v3, so that I can have adjustable toe in the rear? The toe on the stock car is insane and not trackable on tarmac.
It's actually that way so that if you lose a pin or a part, you don't have to buy the entire thing. They will likely make a set for when replacing all of them, rather than just replacing a broken or lost part. Arrma is nothing like Traxxass.
I have the 3s Typhon and even though Arma says these will fit I don't see how they will have the outer stub shaft it's completely different to fit the 17 mm hex. Does anyone have any experience with this?
@@dandyer8351 2 run on 3s and they break, I bought rcawd steel axles and they are much better so far, ran bout 5 3s packs threw it with no issues and 2 4s pack with no issues
Ignorant question please. Just getting into the Hobby and I purchased a big rock. I search TH-cam for axles screw and this video popped up. Does this solve the issue of the wheels falling off randomly? Or is this something else? Thanks in advance
Hey Jay Tee, how are these holding up? My 4s big rock started poping rear axles and shafts, they're not breaking, just popping off. I'm thinking about upgrading to these shafts you got here.
They've been great and have held up well. I also saw a notification that they had the full set and it's actually cheaper than trying to piece part all these pieces together
Are these holding up ok? I just had my rear drive shaft pop out on the wheel hub side this was probably my 6th pack and i didn’t even jump it yet I need a upgrade lol.🥺🤣
I haven't had this issue on my V3 Granite. I take it to skateparks and dirt jumps, haven't had an issue. I did break my rear a arm, but with the abuse at the skatepark, it would be expected.
@@drakunusrcmaniac8708 must be nice! I'm getting pretty fed up with mine. Axles, servos, gears, bearings, fans you name it. I never even put this much money into any of my real car's but I guess if you want to play you have to pay. Sad thing is I don't even get to play anymore for more than a few minutes before something else gives out. I stopped using them for a while but decided to get them out yesterday for my birthday and not even two minutes in the servo went on the big rock and another GPM axle on one of the Granite's. Arrma has been pretty good at warranty if you don't mind waiting a month for parts but things like Axles they told me are wear parts so no warranty on them.
This truck is made out of turd. I've pretty much replaced everything and something always falls off or breaks.. The amount of money I've dumped into this pile of crap, I could of gotten traxxas Maxx. Stay away from Arrma hot garbage or you will be regretting.

I watch your video to show how it was installed.
Bet...
I been popping out driveshafts at the yolk on my senton like crazy since i put granite tries on it.
I just bit the bullet on a pair of these just for tge back. I'm sick of popping the stock ones, and yes I adjusted the slipper. Hope they hold up
My keep pooping off too and I loosened my slipper I guess whenever mine pop off I’ll buy these
all you need to remove stock axle from diff is a long allen key and go through middle of driveshaft no need to pop u joint apart.
not everyone has tools that long....

Amazon has a cheap $10 set *HRB* as well. I use it in my field/travel kit. Fits perfectly up through the driveshaft as well 👍🏾

Helped me a ton
Great upgrade!
So my son and I have the 2013 Granite BLX's. Can the cup and dogbone drive system be upgraded with these parts too?
Hi
Just fitted these on my granite but they came with 2 metal collars and 2 small grub srcews too
I avent a clue what there for

Are these still available anywhere?
Is there a way to do this with the 17mm wheel hub Typhon 3s blx?
Dude thank you so much bro

No you're not. Other people acting like they have never broke them which they may have but I work in mine a couple of times

Is the wheel axle the same size and shape as stock? Would my 17mm hex fit on these axles?
Damm arrma be nickel and diming us when it comes to the parts. They couldn't throw in the pins in with the shafts?

Hello JT.. is the front and rear driveshaft all same???
same
@@JayTeeRC will these fit on the 3s Typhon also?

@@Wreckedekcoupe typhon has 17mm hexs
Hows it been any issues
the rear stock ones on my granite keep popping out
get these
I got these for my truck and there’s a ton of movement in the shaft. Not sure why….
Is this the new part which comes on the new V3 series? So if i get the V3 typhon it should already come installed with the new part?
Can't get them in the UK for love nor money I've gone for gpm shafts they seem ok
I got em and the joint pin next to diff broke apart
@@alextuxhorn8921 how long had u been useing them before breakage

I got a set for granite and senton, destroyed center diff on first pack. May need to adjust my slipper clutch..
@@ST-zx9ue yep sounds like it
Do you not have the same problem with the big rock
not yet
I've converted my Granite to use Typhon 3S 17mm wheel hubs. Do they have a kit with 17mm hubs? (Great video, thanks!)
I am.not sure
A long Allen wrench is your friend
Ignorant question please. Just getting into the Hobby and I purchased a big rock. I search TH-cam for axles screw and this video popped up. Does this solve the issue of the wheels falling off randomly? Or is this something else? Thanks in advance
You have to put blue locktite on the wheel mounting screw. No more wheels randomly falling off

very well so far
@@JayTeeRC thx 🙏🏽😇
Yeah man
So Does it durable?
yep
Would of been nice if u actually showed us how to install the new ones.
Why not just buy the gpm shafts , they cost less than the oem plastic ones
Is this problem still existing with the Granite V3 or it just pops out at the V2?
I haven't had this issue on my V3 Granite. I take it to skateparks and dirt jumps, haven't had an issue. I did break my rear a arm, but with the abuse at the skatepark, it would be expected.
I've gone through quite a bit but yet I drive it like I stole it 😂 even broke a steel GPM first time out and that's only n dirt
@@Laurel-Crowned my one is still running well...only tie rod ends and pivot balls had to get replaced so far..all other parts still good
