Very nice upgrade!
These CV shafts are amazing. It did require me to change the hubs to the 17mm hub and nut. Came with all the bearings I needed. Installation was easy. And it makes the car look a little cleaner while adding strength.

As durable as you'd hope
I was breaking the OEM drive shafts EVERY TIME I went bashing. I think I went through 6 shafts before I decided to bitebthe bullet and buy the good ones everyone was recommending. I wasn't doing anything too crazy, but the 4S 120C 10,000 maH battery I was using delivers too much torque for the OEM driveshafts. After several weeks, I've been thoroughly satisfied with this upgrade. You MUST get 17mm wheel nuts with this upgrade. They dont fit with the small OEM nuts. Be sure to get the right 17mm wheel nuts, too. The ones in the pic were the wrong set for the Maxx (perhaps they're for the Stampede?). I had to re-order. Great purchase. Spend the cash. You'll save in the long run.

Work like expected. Get the parts you need and get it done!
Hubs for Widemaxx with this are part number 8654 for anyone wondering. These work amazing though little bit squeaky installed out of the box obviously but just add some grease and it will make it go away. Overall there perfect.

Must have, sadly
-1 star because the price is STUPID expensive for what it is. Its roughly 1/5 the price of the Maxx! And you still need the Widemaxx kit and the hub and nuts! Thats 240, almost half the price of the Maxx! But they have us over a barrel... these are a must. The plastic ones WONT last.

Perfect Fit
Traxxas to me makes the strongest steel drives. Used many other brands over the years that just bend and fail after a few runs. Just make sure you get the right axels for either maxxx or wide maxx there is a difference in lengths between the 2 trucks

High on price but worth it
Definitely worth it really strong

genuine parts
very good, they’re genuine traxxas. you will need 17mm wheel nuts and studs to complete the install, you cannot use the stock stuff so that adds about another $35
