Brand new JAMBO never step in ground, has bend shaft :/

Although there is a wobble, it does not look out of the ordinary to be honest, for a basher.
My first guess is it's due to unbalanced tires, since tires are not balanced from the factory.
Second gues would be play in the bearings (diff cup en wheel axle), which should not be there though, since the car is new.
Third guess would be a bent shaft, which would also be strange with a new car. This would be pretty easy to check by getting the shaft out and give it a close inspection.
 
Ok guys, im about to order a set of shafts just in case (and a Dementor Body).
It's wise to put in the basket the "Swiss Spring Steel" drive axle, or not?
 
So, i have to remove the old cup drives (that goes to the wheel hex) and attach the "PRO drive axle" to the dog bones or i'm missing something?
Asking 'cause the stock axles look like CVD's in the catalog (yes i'm a bit confused)

The order was placed. I almost ordered the front axle, but at the last minute I realized my mistake! I also got the RollCage Foam, which is strangely missing.I am surprised, however, that the prices on Corally's site are higher than the site i placed the order.

While waiting for the parts to arrive, can you suggest any other upgrades I should implement before I (finally) start bashing?
Motor mount?ShockTowers? etc..
