One shaft, many jobs. This genuine TLR centre dogbone is the driveline chameleon of the 8IGHT family: it runs the centre-rear position on the 8IGHT 3.0 nitro buggy, the centre-front on the 8IGHT-E 3.0 — the electric layout flips the centre package, so the same shaft serves the opposite end — and carries across the family from the 4.0 race kits to the Losi RTR line. Machined metal in black, and built on TLR's stated engineering preference: centre dogbones eliminate the friction of a CV coupler and the bind a worn CV develops, keeping the driveline free-spinning race after race.

Fitment

Fits across the 8IGHT family, per Losi/TLR's own compatibility listing: TLR race kits — 8IGHT 3.0 (centre-rear), 8IGHT-E 3.0 (centre-front), 8IGHT 4.0, 8IGHT-E 4.0 and 8IGHT-X — and the Losi RTR line: 8IGHT Nitro RTR (LOS04010/V2), 8IGHT-E Brushless RTR (LOS04014) and 8IGHT-T Nitro Truggy RTR (LOS04011/V2). Position varies by model, so confirm the slot via your exploded view. One truggy distinction matters: this shaft serves the Losi 8IGHT-T RTR — the TLR 8IGHT-XT/XTE race truggy takes its own rear shaft (TLR242044, on our shelves). Service wisdom carries over: inspect outdrive cups for pin-groove wear when replacing (worn cups eat new dogbones), and rotate shafts between services so pins wear evenly.
