Losi baja rey play in center driveshaft?

[Yonic]

Hi, my baja rey have some play in the front of the rear driveshaft (towards the center diff).
This is after just one pack, on 2s.

Is this normal? I dont hear any weird noises.

Thanks!

I don't think that is normal ,it has the potential to grenade itself!

How is that joint held on ,by spline output or set screw?

Not sure what a spline output is.. it’s like a set screw with a pin that goes though the outdrive.

Spline is a grooved shaft that allow another to slide freely over it!

Sense it is a pin ,you should make sure that the pin stays tight ,most people will use a
blue loc-tite on the threads so the screw doesn't vibrate an back out!....

You could ask @bicketybam. He has that truck I believe. Might be able to give you some insight.
