Senton 3s

[Shivraaj0247]

Hi guys !
This is going to be my build thread
Here’s my senton. It’s stock so far but I’m trying to 3D print a Center driveshaft cover which would be nice ?

Can’t wait to see that 3D print????

Are you using the @Camaroboy383 design?

 

[Shivraaj0247]

Yup
I will credit him once I get my print and post pics of it

 

[Shivraaj0247]

I got the parts 3D printed !??
Here they are

 

[jondilly1974]

Nice! What filament and printer was used?

 

[Shivraaj0247]

All the credit goes to @Camaroboy383
He made this design
I used PLA for all the parts and I had to use a Dremel 3D45
I had to use that printer because thats the printer my school had and I don’t have one

 

[Camaroboy383]

Looks good buddy.. just keep in mind if you start sending it off some big jumps the top cover could break when the chassis flex's.. if you end up running into that issue just print the top cover in tpu.. it will hold up to pretty much anything you can throw at it...

 

[Shivraaj0247]

Thanks !

Nice! I’m thinking of adding this to my Granite. I have some TPU and am gonna give that a shot. Thanks again @Camaroboy383

@jondilly1974 Wait, it’s not gonna fit a Granite unless you modify the design. The granite has a short wheelbase chassis and this is designed for the long wheelbase chassis.

Good catch. I guess it will have to go on the K4S then ??

Just disassembled everything for new bearings, I got new stainless steel rubber sealed Jim’s bearings.
Going to see how they perform

Good point. After a long track session, my patented brace, is most of the time, lift up (broken or bended screw). But it saved the chassis...
Thanks to shriva for sharing. I like your job.

The stock bearings are one of my biggest disappointments with my Senton. I've had several lock up on me.

 

[Shivraaj0247]

The same happened here, the stock bearing in the slipper clutch assembly locked up and exploded into a million pieces
