revo drive line question.

[beason]

I somehow destroyed one of the u joint things on my revo... one of the shafts is completely gone. :O

i haven't had any problems with the stock drive line so i want to just fix what i broke. is it easier to replace the u joint part or the whole drive shaft?

i know i had hell getting those little things in my rusty.

also does anyone have a stock revo shaft laying around?? the one that goes from the diff to the wheel.

The 'blue boot' is glued at both ends on those shafts. I had one that was torn and had to glue it back (it was a real PITA). They are just like the CDs, 2 pieces (not sure why they are booted). I'd consider just buying a new one, I wouldn't think a whole one costs much more than just one end and you wouldn't have to glue it. I haven't replaced mine yet so I don't have a spare, but I know there are plenty of people here that have.

Get the new shaft and all and save yourself the hassle.I think they are like $9.00 for 2 shafts.

i looked on tower and they have the half shafts, and the u joints seperate, but none together. i tore it apart and noticed i broke the U part of the shaft that goes through the axle carrier. i guess that is how i lost the part of the u joint. i guess ill have to ebay some axles, i dont think my lhs will have them complete.
