DIY Stealth Transmission Spacers

[JK Racing]

What to do...you built up a Stealth tranny, but you have no spacers. Search eBay, and if you get very lucky, you get a set. Vintage A&L still sells the alloy ones (look awesome).



BUT...what if there was a part available off the shelf at the LHS that would work?

Hmmm...HPI part # 100318 (I had a blitz, these were leftover parts )

They are a touch large to fit into the stealth holes & about .5mm short.



A quick run in a drill on a file fixes that a quick bevel on the leading edge that you push into the tranny case.

Nice find!

[wait a minute]

team associated down stop kit is all i ever used for shimming between the transmission case and the motor plate.
