Pretty cool. Man, that's a lot of work! I know... I've been there.

But you are not done yet, so back to work

Yes! tomorow i'll cut, shape and trime the mount with my trusty press-drill, saw and Dremel, but i must wait for my Ofna Spyder differential to completed the work!

And this mount is a bit on the heavy side, because i've use 9.5mm thick aluminium, so i'll put it on a milling machine again to shave some weight and thin it down to about 5mm.

Hmmm... if you have a mill, why did you drill and cut it like that? Looks like lots of drill holes and then cut with dremel, etc. ?

How big are the bearings for the shafts?

No, i don't have mill, i must go on a machine shop to do the job, and it cost a lot of $$.
Just to make the hole3 for the 4 bearing, it cost me $96.00

The bearing for the top sliper shaft is 5x11 and those for the diff are 8x16.

Jesus, 96 bucks! I am lucky to have a local machinist that helps me out with small stuff. The last few things he did were free! I have him do a fair amount of stuff on my various gun projects, plus he is laid back and only really works cause he would get bored.

Nice looking work David. I am planning something similar for the revo I just built. It has the hybrid diffs I got from you, and will have a center diff with the integrated slipper, as soon as Mike starts selling them! I will have to make some custom bulkheads, but will most likely have the machinist make the whole deal. I will just design it, not very difficult!
