Gpm or integy?

[dillon_mitko]

My hot racing driveshafts for my BRCC 3S are not doing too well as they keep snapping. I just ran out of spares and I’m not spending another 70$ on them. I was looking around and found GPM driveshafts and Integy driveshafts. I was wondering which ones you guys think would be better.

Neither. They’re worse junk than the HR ones. Just run the stock ones with a properly set slipper.

Were the Hot Racing Shafts breaking in the same area or different areas?
Nevermind! Jon has ya taken care of!! ?

What about the Arrma HD option shafts? No One seems the suggest them or talk about them but they got to be better than the aftermarket options.

As Dilly said... Both use soft aluminum, so if you do use them it better be more for show than "work". I have both of their products one my Kraton 6s. It is now a street machine only, but before the full change I bent both integy shock tower mounts and a gpm rear wing mount, not in a real bash session either.
But then again, these are driveshaft's, so....

God damn those integy parts are hot garbage.

I just replace with stock on lots of stuff like this. Wing mounts same thing..even over RPM. Unless MIP makes em, I would just go stock.

 

[dillon_mitko]

Dang I figured even soft aluminum would be better than plastic.? what about what @Warby said About the HD ones. I’ve just had really bad luck with the stock ones, even when I set my slipper they would snap from jumping even off throttle. So would the HD ones work.

Give em a try, be the guinea pig... ? As these are driveshafts you may have better luck. One thing to consider though, if you loose any one piece, other than small pin, in bash session you have to get a whole new set to fix, or that point replace. I had a similar issue with some GPM shocks I got. Bent the shaft and now I'm having a hard time finding it to fix. I did order replacements with the thought of fixing later... I'll continue the hunt once I stop repairing all the other stuff... ?

I believe the Arrma Composite CVDs come as a set, but they sell the parts individually too. Problem is the CVD sets are very expensive.

https://www.integy.com/st_prod.html?p_prodid=36322&p_catid=492#.XmmDuBZq2Ec What about these? I know it’s integy so it’s softer aluminum but it has the same design as the 6S models so maybe that design of driveshaft is just overall better?

Interesting

Interesting

I’ll probably just be the guinea pig fairly soon lol?

 

[slick2500]

I foresee those popping out a lot.

Should be similar to the 6S ones where they pop out occasionally but not very much... or am I missing something that’s a major difference that would cause that?

Whatever you get, keep us updated. Before use and after a period of use etc

What's wrong with these? Specifically? Anyone here who has had these and had a bad experience?
I have the similar Integy version for my Crawler. If the same as in picture, they are steel. And the swivel pins are strong. They are telescopic. And not any Aluminum in there.

They were saying integy uses a soft aluminum... but if they are steel I’m 100% down with getting those

 

[SrC]

^^^ Absolutely my point. IF they are truly steel like my Axial Crawler version they are a decent option. The picture looks like zinc coated steel like mine. Need to verify what they are made of. That's all. Integy alloys are garbage in general. I know that.

I’ll pick up a set of those pretty soon then. Hopefully they are like your crawler ones.
