Ufc synthesis build

What!!! I don't get it, how can they make a chassis that has no possibility of fitting existing dog bones. What makes the diff be so far away? I must have missed a pick again or something??? I even went back to the start and I'm still bewildered. Lol

Update, finally able to work on the axles a bit more. I sleeved them this time, should hold up alot better, I think the main weak point will be the 4mm pin going into the cvd out drive now.

I think your approach looks great John.

Now let-er rip and see how they hold up.

@John Parks did you cut the shafts and slide the sleeve in? Only way I can see it ... what did you use, stainless?

 

[RcJunkie13]

if you did cut it to slide the shafts on wouldn’t that cause some balance issues with the shafts? cuz there’s no way you could’ve welded it back perfectly straight

Last one broke next to the ball end where it was turned down for clearance to the cup, not sure what the results will be. Testing needed! Lol

Looks like it was mig welded, I can see the splatter, personally I would have them tig welded. I do forsee those welds cracking. But very curious to see how it goes John.

If you want to send me a set I can tig them for you

Yep, cut the shafts and slid them in. They are a tight fit, mig welded. I can tig, but switched my welder over back to mig. I don't forsee the weld breaking very easy, 2 tack welds I had to break with a pipe wrench lol.

These are vesla shafts, so they are more stout on that end now. The turned ones I knew would bust their, just a bad design on the guy I had do it.

Alright then, I say it's good to roll

Lol how not? I assume by that statement you've never had any type of welding background or anything of that nature

Alright then, I say it's good to roll

Good until it's not lol

The not factor is how fast you want to reach the center like the tootsie pop owl

 

[Rceverywhere]

Mmm, how many licks does it take?
