(skip top paragraph for short version)
I've recently purchased an 1/8 buggy chassis (kyosho inferno mp777 sp1)
Drivetrain was supposed to be included, but it was not here when it arrived, seller ignores my mail.
Now its time to buy a new set of driveshafts/ all round cvd's.
I've seen the price of professional grade drive shafts, 80ish$us for 2/6 parts i need.
I'm considering buying cheaper items, two "easy fixes" are to buy the complete sets (all 6 pieces) from china.
I am unsure of their quality by meerly looking closely at them, they do however mention what they are made from and the production brand.
Also, I'm running a bigger engine in this buggy, its an hpi 2.6

My choice of driveshafts; (links to item page on ebay.ca)

Hardened steel? cvd's

I just want to know if either of these parts are even worth buying, i do have an alternative to both of these, but il be forced to use one 3+ year old front center drive shaft.

thanks in advance.
