Hello everybody.

I put my car on the setup board and turn on. The car has a lot of vibration. I think may be the shaft, because are too old.

What do you think with parts can cause most vibration of the car?

Thanks.

Is the vibration when you turn full lock using a spool?

All the time. The vibration is higher when I turn full. But I am using the ECS shaft 52mm in the front. But these shaft have almost 1 years old. I don't remember exactly.

Yes using spool.

If the shafts are old and have a lot of play this could be the cause of these vibrations. Try to replace the worn parts and use some HUDY graphite grease on them too.

You may also want to check the balance of your tires

Why don't use the XRAY ECS driveshafts? I am sure that these will have a longer lifespan than those of the competiton. I occasionally replace the drive shaft case 305250 which will develop play, as well as the pins and the couplings; 305251, 305390. The shaft and axle itself last very long but you will need to replace after say one season of racing if it has been properly lubricated with black grease all through the usage.

Yes I am using ECS shaft. But are too old, and the Spec-r are more cheaper.

If my shaft are too old and have a lot of play, it may be lost traction?

Thank you.
