Did not know what to expect. Got a set in for my granite 3s blx v3.

These look great except the diff side of the driveshaft is not splined. They expect a grub screw to hold it in.

I can't speak for the 3s line up much. Except for I have a kraton with rcawd shafts. Centers. They held up great on 8s uses.. but on the 3s lineup the plastic basic ones have held up to 4s and a few 6s runs. Don't recommend that. But rcawd is a hit or miss.
 
I would send them back. The GPM CVDs are similar in that they are made the same with steel and aluminum except the piece that goes on the diff outdrive IS splined and has a grub screw also. And they are about the same price. My GPM CVDs have held up to 4s power for about 3 months now with no problems whatsoever.
 
Was that from a bash or over-torqued nut?

I returned those rcawds. Already got gpm's on the rear for now. Hope they don't bust as fast as the stock junk driveshafts.
Over dry grass few bumps. Nut was looser than I wanted due to binding. With b loctite
