It has to transmit the full drivetrain load through a joint that is articulating constantly, which makes it one of the harder working parts on the car.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWear appears at the ends first. The tips round off and the outdrive cups they sit in open up, and the play that results shows as a knock under acceleration and a clunk when you lift off the throttle. On a touring car that play also costs drivetrain efficiency directly, which means reduced runtime and a motor running hotter than it should.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause both sides wear at the same rate, replacing them as a pair keeps the car balanced and saves a second strip-down shortly after.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength is the critical spec, so check before ordering. Kyosho lists these for the TF-5S kits specifically, not the original TF-5 or the Readyset cars. Two are supplied.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PowerHobby","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44532864319576,"sku":"KYOTF035","price":6.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0567\/0554\/8376\/files\/5ds5ds5ds5s565s5s5_3965f9cc-d65b-4d45-8222-6aeb76169b31.jpg?v=1786243012","url":"https:\/\/beavertonmilestonehobby.com\/products\/kyosho-tf035-46-5mm-swing-shaft-2pcs-tf-5s","provider":"Beaverton Milestone Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
