Vekta questions

This came with my vertigo transmission but I can't figure out were it goes View attachment 69861

It goes on the bottom of the disc brake to hold it in place. I’ll get a better pic later if you still can’t find it

Ok, on the outside and the disk brake sits in the slot.

 

[Haric]

Yes??

 

[blackrain]

Yes??

Ok thanks ?
All done just need those nuts for front shocks

Wonder why they decided that was a needed feature. Isnt the center of the disk captured?

It is , but has some back and forth play

Ok next question. Heim joints. How they holding up? I'm kinda wanting to get whatever upgrades straight off and be done with it. Been seeing quite a few guys that seem to trash the plastics ones quick, then others that seem to do decent for a season without too much fuss. Last question is, does anyone know the thread size and eye size. Seeing stupid amounts of money for the alloy ends. Wondering if I can find something and make my own rods.

Look at mcmastercarr for heim joints. That’s where I buy them. I don’t buy the ones ddm sells or Detroit performance. I think it’s cheaper

I will post pics of the other ones I bought when I get home from work

Hmm that's interesting, just wondering why its needed. The pads keep it from moving too much, wonder if they are worries about it binding ?

 

[Haric]

@Seandonato73 here are heim joints that I bought from McMastercarr

 

[Mick Boomer]

Any way you can show part numbers? Are these for stock arms ect.....?

Does anyone know if the lexan cover will fit over the vertigo tranny for the vekta?

 

[Seandonato73]

Pretty sure it does, @crucialRC, @siblues, @John Parks

So I take it we need that lexan cover ? Gearbox isn’t supposed to be open?

 

[PortCityRC]

So I take it we need that lean cover ? Gearbox isn’t supposed to be open

I don't really think it is a must but I just want the extra protection from any debris if it does fit..I don't plan on running this through any stones but ? can and will happen.

 

[Haric]

Let us know if it fits
