Default Driveshaft recommendations for Axial JK

So, I've already twisted a couple of driveshafts, and now I've got a lot of noise coming from the u-joints.

Does anybody have a steel replacement they'd recommend? Part numbers and links would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Bill

try the wild boar cv joints as featured on the g6 … also maybe the shaft angle is too acute. if you can change it ??

Seems most people like MIP's shafts even though the price for wild boars are about the same.MIP 10145 kit and Traxxas 5189 screw kit

MIPS is very popular, but I used Juncs Hardened Universal Shaft
