Those 'rings' are bearing spacers/ adaptors, not the same thing as what goes on the back of the pivot balls.




Dont worry Bondo, I know what you're talking about

They did only start coming fairly recently on newer 3905/ erevo style knuckles though, so maybe Popoxx didnt have any on his stock knuckles that are a bit older, but still 3905/ erevo style- I think that is where the confusion is coming from.

Funny thing is though, I just went through all the exploded views and the part listings on towerhobbies; absolutely zero info, pictures, or part #s for those metal caps. I've seen them with my own two eyes though- they fit in place of the blue rubber dust boot & retaining clip on the back of the pivot balls, yet I cant seem to fnid them anywhere

Best bet is it to find something similar that will fit, or make a metal plate to screw on the back like the ImpaktRc knuckles:

I wish I was at home to show you the instructions included with the 5334R axle carriers and which explains that these 2 rings have to be used only if you have the inner bearing of the 5334 model !! But I'm not at home

There are only 2 rings for 2 axle carriers because there is one inner bearing per carrier. That's why they are called "bearing adapters".

We're maybe talking about 2 different things Bondonutz...

What I'm talking about has NOTHING to do w/the Friggin' bearing.


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.

If you're talking about the 2 rings you surrounded in you pic then you're talking about bearing... I hate this discussion
