There is not a hardned version at the moment.
If you clean and grease it after a day racing.
It wil last a full season racing
Same for al the axels.

Just put a gaiter over it and put a load of moly grease in there, will last for ages then.

Is that like this?


Sadly Mike's drive shaft fell out of the envelope on its way to me so I won't be able to assemble it.

The pad/puck will be brass but the material is also in the post somewhere so I proved the programming with some aluminium.

I think that with the pad/puck in brass it should be possible to recover even badly worn cups as the pad spans the notch.

Looks good Clive. No problem to drive pin out and re-assemble.

Whey-hey!!! I've got some brass!

Lee, if you are still in bother give me a shout. I make the pads in pairs and it would only take me an hour to modify the cup.

No problem for the TM2 but I'm not familiar with the TM4. Does it use the same cup for the front and rear drive? I guess that the centre diff upgrade will be different too. I will have a look at the manuals when I have the chance.

I'm currently drawing up the tooling required to do the same thing on the gear diff out drives on my TC02C. Looks as though it will work and should reduce friction too.

EDIT: Looks like the drive cup on the rear of the slipper will fit on my jig but the front one, being part of the shaft, will require a completely different approach. I would need to know that more than one would ever be asked for.

That's good, as that's the one I have already modified.

Does the forward drive cup not wear also? T04120

unfortunatly, I don't know.
Presently, i'm used to change only the pin of the shaft and each hub/cup.
For the T04120, I just buy the whole part.

I have asked at the club today and the general feeling was that the front drive shaft carries so little load that it probably doesn't need any urgent attention.

So, with respect to the T02182, do you want to send worn parts to me to have slipper pads fitted? Or do you want to modify new parts?

Clive yes the drive cup wears too. I'd be interested in both of these. How much you looking for for the puck drive?
