Senton Composite Center Slider Driveshaft: 4x4 BLX

[Sosnl]

well I'm probably doing something impossible ? but I've had my center Slider Driveshaft melt a few times now. Because there was a pebble or ic5 between them ... who knows.

I did search but I can't really find anything except that of arrma itself, but not for this model.
but are there maybe upgrades for the center slider driveshaft?

 

[fpvmiller]

Your senton is LWB but I made this for my swb granite. Might give you some ideas.

 

[Sosnl]

neat that you do well say ? but I am not so handy that I can do that myself ? so I already wondered if there was an upgrade upgrade

@Camaroboy383 made a 3d printed cover to protect the driveshaft

 

[Shivraaj0247]

this is the cover @jondilly1974 is talking about

Its somewhat common, so nothing your doing wrong.. The above cover i designed works pretty well.. ? if you have access to a 3d printer you can print one up.. if you do not have access to one id be happy to print a setup for you...✌

 

[Sosnl]

wow and thank you ? and indeed I do not have the option to 3d print ? and if you want to do that for me ik I really love it and thank you again ?.
But how do you want to do that in connection with costs?
Because I live in the Netherlands myself ?
Does that red center bar of the kraton still fit?

id have no issue sending you one for just the cost of shipping.. but most likely you wont see it for well over a month with all thats going on in the world currently.. you would be better off seeking out someone over there that has a 3d printer.. ? if all else fails i can do it for ya.. ✌

Okay well I can see if there is a company here that can do that for me?
Do you have the file for me ? or what do you actually need ?i don't know??
And what are the costs actually?
Not that I get dropped off here if I have it made ?

Anyway I have patience, so don't mind waiting for a while if you want to make it for me. But really super cool and thanks again.?

It is possible to have the file?
I cut my first drive shaft of the year last sunday with small stone. It is a great upgrade since the weather is to hot now to keep my dusty motor.

WOAH, this is freaking awesome. I'm down. I don't know anyone with access to a 3d printer. I'd be willing to cover your time, materials, and shipping if you are down!

Nice. PM me here or something - I think you can do that. I'm in USA-PA btw. No idea where you are located. Already some dirt and gravel has cut into my driveshaft so I know it's only a matter of time.

It looks like shaft is fully enclosed? I've been looking for a solution to hold down the driveshaft bearing so there is no jumping of the shaft. This looks like a great solution.

im in ct, so not far from you..? the downfall is it will proceed through ny, it may spend some time there before it gets to you.. ✌

Cool.

Setup a Shopify/Etsy store and I bet people would buy them!

Is there any extra tough special material you could use - I'm into exotic materials and would cover the cost of a spool or something. Flexible.

[Arawak420]
