eBay results are sadly lacking, 1 hit for 1 each.

So, I've been thinking about designing a hub carrier with a recessed bearing bore or maybe a slightly shorter arm to move the CV assembly inboard by a few mm's. Has Shapeways in the US resolved their durability problems (vis a vis the whole NIX91 issue)? Are there better alternatives short of replacing my 1/4" CV assembly with the 3/16" axle CV (+ perhaps new bearings and hub carriers to fit) and moving the blue washer to the inside?

What if you ran a flanged bearing on the inside?

Thanks. Actually, I am running flanged bearings on both sides - plus all of the shims moved to the inside. My arrangement is just like the original RC10 except for the CV replacing a dogbone. I should have gotten the 3/16" axle CV arrangement instead of what I have. Oh well, live and learn. I'm currently running an old set of universals until I figure out what to do.

Oh, sorry mk, I didn't mean to ignore your post. I'm not familiar with your extended outdrive project. Can you simply make a longer bone like the 9911? It appears to be a basic screw-machine part with a setup to do the cross pins and the slot in the end then, of course, it would require hardening. Are you equipped to make CVA dog bones? I bet once the word got out, you would sell a ton of them. :mrgreen:

No problem 8)
I was experimenting with 3d printed stainless steel outdrives: http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=42028&hilit=Stainless+steel+outdrives
I could make them a couple mm's longer than the stock ones to make up for the short CVA bones.
I'll design up and have printed some longer ones soon. The original pair I had made is in my B1M test mule car and has probably a couple dozen battery packs through them. There's some wear, but they still work great.
