Re: Trackmaster transmission
The hole sizes I had were the measurements from my original Trackmaster side plates. The bearings were really tight in them too but I kept their sizes to try out. They really did need to be opened up a little though.

Re: Trackmaster transmission
Yeah I'm always a fan of making the holes smaller and sneaking up on it on my own stuff. Customers just don't like it much haha

Re: Trackmaster transmission
Hardened steel Factory Works outdrives drilled to size with a carbide drill bit and installed. It's nice to have this transmission complete.

Re: Trackmaster transmission
Probably too high of RPM and I eased it through in small increments on my drill press.TRX-1-3 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 7:51 pmWhat kinda speed and pressure did you run that drill bit at?Frankentruck wrote: ↑Sat Jan 04, 2025 6:39 pm Hardened steel Factory Works outdrives drilled to size with a carbide drill bit and installed.
