I'm slowly working my way through all the pages of this thread. I see guys have changed to use modern CVD's, but from what I see, still using standard ZXR offset wheels. I'm looking at changing to modern wheels as well.
So far I've got some ZX5 cvds, using 62.5mm bone, with UM510 shafts. With some shims, work out about 5mm wider each side, so good for modern wheels. In the front I have some YZ2DTM axles with 66.5mm bone, as thats what I had spare. They fit perfectly and just need the pin filed down to fit the diff. At the moment, all thats stopping me from completing is the shims. Also, one of the Kyosho CVD's doesn't have the barrel the pin goes through. Does anyone know if Kyosho do a rebuild kit for the CVD, as all I can find is these parts with an axle, which considering I need a couple of $$ part seems excessive. |

Kyosho sell the bits separately, it's listed here somewhere, but also if you search on Google should be able to find. If your specific and say something like parts for LA245 or similar wording.
Wheels yes I use Ansman mad rat wheels front and rear and are really nice

Anything is possible, just comes down to how much effort. The RC10 required custom hubs, and axles from another car to get the right width. The JRX-PRO was easy, no custom parts, just some hexs. The Yokomo Works uses ZX6 front axles all round and hexes. The axles I have for the Lazer shift the mounting location for the wheel further out, so with the right width hexes will be the car will maintain the exact same width.

Instead of carbon plate could use 2 triangular fins of black delrin using the 4 screws on the tower that Sampsa used but bolting to the side of the gearbox through what looks like 2 through holes? I circled on the pic

Sounds like a perfect solution. What do you need to make it from me, and likely to cost?

So I would need the rear gearbox and tower, I can draw up the tower then as well in case you need a replacement at some stage I'd say it would cost around $25-30, they aren't very big bits of delrin, I have black or white delrin in stock.

Parts will be heading to Damon hopefully today so he can make this part and get the rear tower copied too. Should provide some good strength to the bulkhead.

OK I was confused at the start but your on about the rear. Why exactly are you doing this? I just put a thicker tower on and that's saved my bacon on many occasions, only after I broke mine plus was the same time Jamie Booth did his as well

If your trying to strengthen the tower bracket it bolts to then an alloy plate designed to go through the above pictured highlighted holes and also connected to the tower four screw holes.

Yea, strength the tower bracket. I guess I'm wanting to bullet proof the car as much as I can. I'm getting it ready for our vintage Nats and spending abit to get it ready, so trying to reduce any chance of a DNF.

Which is pretty much what I'm going to do, but using 2 small delrin plates instead of a folded alloy plate
