TRA3985X output gear on the scjrss CD - 09.01.2009, 11:57 AM
So here's how I installed the Traxxas output gear on the Hyper 7 CD that scjrss made. Here's the cap made from the Hyper 7 spur gear with the 4 holes that are threaded with M3 threads.
The red you see in the holes is just something I am trying to stop lube seapage between the threads and the screws. It's very sticky and tough tape used to tape the seams when you put vapor barrier on your house's walls.
Here's the CD assembled ready for the output gear.
Other than the center hole that was trimmed to let the 8X12X3.5 bearing go deeper in the gear, it didn't need any more modifications. The thick spokes of the output gear are lined up between the threaded holes of the cap.
Four M3X16 mm flathead screws that were trimmed down to 14.5 mm in length to secure the output gear to the CD.
And here is the final product ready to use.
