[blackrain]

Did any of you guys have fitment issues with full force servo mount and hilantronics hilly is like to thick for these to line up she got curves

You need the large servo mounts?
I bought MOD Losi Mounts

Mabe I should file them down one one side

The mounts are taller and for large servos. Should be no fitment issue with these

Damb if the vekta was a woman she would be a gold digger

 

[PortCityRC]

You got that right!

 

[blackrain]

When you put the servo between the 2 mounts the bottom holes aren't lining up

You want this one..the 1005 is on my vekta and is a giant scale
You need a taller mount? or do you mean the mount is currently too thick to line up?

I'm going to try and file one of the sides flat were the fins are to bring it closer to servo first. I want to red loctite the center shaft but the side near the brake looks like it will be a pain to access and remove with red loctite

 

[PortCityRC]

Yes unfortunately you will have to pull the brakes as well and I suggest loctite everything that goes into the vertigo aluminum too, I've had the brake caliper screw back out a well and smoke my rcr pads already and the screws on the top brake actuator shaft plate

Ok, did all that think I'm going to stick with blue just soak it

The new driveshaft is so much smoother. You should be fine just tighten them 4mm pins really good.not many threads on the new included hardware with it
Hmm that is off a little but is lined up .like you said you should be able to file them down

That's good to know

Is the servo fitting now?

Yes
The 0 ring that came with new shaft is so thick brake can't move over it

 

[PortCityRC]

Same with mine..use old one
That's gonna screw with your brakes

I pulled the brake disk over the ball side then slid the disk on, then fiddled around to get the orange in position.... seemed to work

Ya, the old one fits better old one is on the left look at the size difference

 

[Seandonato73]

I think they intended it to keep the disk forward towards the trans if using the original trans without the alignment thing on the bottom

 

[PortCityRC]

Yeah I fought with mine and just swapped orings..no harm..big oring tweaked the rotor outwards and made it not sit proper when tightening the pads screws
On the old shaft it did seem to hold the disc
This new setup oring supplied is just way too big
