Talion Plastic spur

[matn1]

Hi,

I have seen referenced that one of the Durango spurs fits on the Talion. Ordered TD310586 but it is clearly made for a longer outdrive shaft. Could anyone point out what part it is that fits?

Edit: I should mention, I am specifically looking for composite spurs. I will use those when I bash in a more noise sensitive area such as a campground

Thanks,
Mat

I wonder if the Kyosho one would fit:

Or even the Mugen:

BOTH NOT TESTED

Hey Matn1

I have the TD310586 Installed on my Talion and it is awesome. No more metal grinding noise!

However to get the TD310586 to fit the Talion's center diff I had to use a metal file and file down the shaft which is longer than the stock talions metal spur.

It took around 30 minutes of filing, but it worked and I have run 6s Lipo packs through the truck and its running flawlessly.

Wait a second.... waiiiiiit a second. You are about to become my favorite person so hang tight with me here for a moment.

What part exactly is it that you sanded down?
Because I have 3 of those spurs and I haven't figured out what to sand and how I will still be able to fit the bearing on them if I send them that far. Here are pictures of mine. Can you clarify what you did based on my pictures?

E.g. in my case, what currently happens is that the modified assembled diff is 2mm too long with it grinded to a point where the outer bearing is half-supported by the remaining metal.

That third spur on the right which you've already grinded down is what I did and only half of my outer bearing is also supported due to the amount of material that needs to be removed on the composite spur to allow the axel to be inserted deep enough for the pin inside the diff housing to secure it

so youve done the correct thing, don't worry about the outer bearing only being half supported, that has had absolutely no negative impact on my truck, and I have run more than ten 6s packs through the spur already with the bigger Backflip MT tires from the outcast and with the high speed pinion.

Ok, so for posterity, while I did use a 10x16x5 bearing on the TD spur, in retrospect it would have been an easier fit to use a 10x16x4 bearing as that avoids having to grind so much material. You could presumably also switch to an 8x16x4 on the other side and gain the missing 2mm that way especially if you don't want to grind this to an insane level.

Hi TalionSWB, in my case on a Kraton I have a little bit more than 2mm too much.... In your case what did you do to save this space ?
just swapping both 5mm bearing by 4mm ? Or something more ? Many many thanks for your pictures and first explanation !
