One was about .5* off and I had to cut and tack it back in place then weld it across to make it stronger but when I did, everything shifted on me (as SST does). So I had to use a precision hammer to beat it back into place, precisely. So no I wouldn't not laugh.

Let me know I'll cut you some blocks of Delrin in the morning. I have some that is 2" thick and is flat top and bottom. I also have 1" thick and some other sizes.

2" would be good, as it would clear the vise I have and allow me to eyeball stuff (my precision instrument) a bit better.

And these hub carrier are actually the same as the nitro rustler/pede, a little different from the elctric 2wd rusty/pede models. 1952 is a very old traxxas number, looked funny when I 1st saw it!!

Can you use 1" Thick 2" tall? I looked this morning and all I can fine is a bunch of 1"

Good thing you didnt' say 1" thick, 2" long... linc might have gotten confused. ;)

Yes I have seen Linc's posts that's why I worded it the way I did.

Let me know soon I have a guy on the mill right now so, I'll whoop up a couple of blocks later after he is finished. How wide is your vice?
