The LOS242017 Front/Rear Outdrives are a genuine Losi drivetrain component used in 1/8-scale 8IGHT RTR platform vehicles (such as 8IGHT, 8IGHT-T, and related RTR variants). These parts sit inside the differential assembly and connect the internal gears to the driveshafts via drive pins.
Their job is to transfer power from the differential to the axles while allowing suspension movement. Because they are a direct contact wear surface, the grooves where the pins ride can wear over time, leading to drivetrain slop or inconsistent power delivery.
This part is typically replaced during differential rebuilds or when the outdrive cups become notched or worn.

Summary
This is a critical drivetrain wear part used inside the differential to transmit power to the wheels. It’s commonly replaced when grooves develop from repeated use, helping restore smooth and solid drivetrain engagement.
