Hyperdrive conversation parts

Post by Frankentruck »

This is probably a question that doesn't need asking, but there aren't any sources of hyperdrive belts and spur/pinion pulleys anymore are there?

The belts carry a SDP part number and SDP-SI is still around. However the belts were cut to a narrower width than I seen listed back when I looked at this- and it was a couple years back- but I suspect in quantity they could get them in the proper widths.

Link in this is dead anyway but part number might get you in the ballpark

Much appreciated. Do you think there's any hope of finding any pinion or spur pulleys, other than just watching eBay for pop-ups?

I'd go eBay, and keep your eyes open.... they do pop up every now and then. I was able to grab a set a decade or so ago, in a lot of other junk.... split it up and sold off the Hyperdrive parts, and somebody got to do good things with them.

Patience, I guess.... :roll:

Hey I have been playing around with some belt drive units from Aliexpress
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002345664360.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dLbzcDr
May be able to use some of these parts, im looking to adapt the slipper units for one of my builds, They also have a ton of drive belt pulleys which im sampling to fit on my Rocky conversion, but they are predominantly set up for 3D printers and you need to check the belt pitch and width.

Good luck
