Lst2 cvds and hubs on a Savage

[Jahay]

linc... i started a little today, just mocking up and taking measurements using my Vorza diff ouputs...

I think your braces maybe a little long resulting in your cvd not sitting in the Diff output :/
From what i tested, it seems the hinge pin has to be as close to the bulk head as possible for the cvd to sit in the Diff axle as much as possible.

In this pic you can see the pin in the CVD, so the cvd is sitting in the correct place.


In this pic you can see the hinge pin is compressed right up next to the bulk so the cvd fits perfectly in the diff axle.



In the pic below... the hinge pin is as close to the bulk as possible.
The measured disance from centre of original Hingepin bulk head hole to the centre hinge pin sat next to the bulk is 0.6mm

It would be even better if it was 0.5mm but nothing can be done about that. (BUT IM CONSIDERING THE FLM XL Arms now that are 0.5mm longer per arm as i could utilise the bulk holes?



Increased width due to lst hub over stock



Linc i am having huge problems cutting out my 4mm alloy braces! I am using a dremel and a bench grinder to shape, and they are just not doing the job! I have only completed what is below



and it took me absolutely ages just to get to this point.
What tools are you using to cut it out????
Or what do people recommend for cutting things out of alloy? and neatly?

This is what I have been using to cut aluminum sheets for the small stuff, such as my battery trays for my 5T, but its also not been as thick as what I see you using.

With the Ez-Lock attachment.

I do like the increased width; what is the diameter of the axle?
