these .5 mm shims are available for purchase at my eBay store. if you're running an axial crawler , it is my opinion that you need this upgrade to save your gears if you're running the ar44 axles or the umg 10 6 by 6. Axial is aware of this flaw with their axles, I don't know if they're doing anything to rectify it though, time will tell.
Nice work Tyler great fix i Don't know how mine has been running this long without issues lol i use marine grease works great
Yeah your getting lucky compared to me, the problem really shows up under load in reverse, I didn't notice it at any other time.
Hi! Great work, you made it perfect! Same Problem at the SCX 6 Diff's... Mighty backlash and lot's of broken teeth...
Do you have the SCX6?
@@SteadfastRC Yeah, Front Diff is broken... May be 2,5h... Befor you start with it, check ALL the components... It is better for your wallet... Internet is full of broken SCX6 Diff's... there are also GREASED(!!!) Slipper Clutches and dry Gearboxes to find on RUclips. Lot's of people have problems. Not just the boys who always break everything... More problems than the 1/10 scale AXIAL'S... My opinion... BUT i say also the SCX 6 is a GOOD RC CAR! The problem is AXIAL'S Quality - Management, sloppy processing IN China. And there are some points to make much better... Steering servo moves in the bracket, wishbone(?) bracket is weakly dimensioned. If the servo moves, you can see the flex in the bracket... You see, there is a lot potencial to make it better...
@@michaeltrilck5680 exactly dude you're preaching to the choir on that one, I'm trying to find someone who is willing to work with me on developing a shim kit for it after hearing about all the problems people been having, axial sure isn't going to do it under horizons management. Do you live in the US and can you use calipers to take precision measurements?
@@SteadfastRC I am so sorry, Sir! I am from germany... And we are measure metric all... And a another problem for me is, my bad bad english... There are lot's of types of shims from other manufacturer or from AXIAL too/other earlier RC-models you can use... I am not the big mighty expert for all this RC something. But i have learned a lot in the last 2,5years about RC... I am a toolmaker and a machinist, i know a little bit about play, backlash, steel quality, and so on... Thanks shit Corona,I've had a lot of time, you know... A new hobby for me 😉 😎 👍
@@michaeltrilck5680 okay thanks man, sounds like you have it under control if you're a machinist. I can work in either imperial or metric doesn't matter to me.
Just saw you vid about the shims....recently broke My rear axle housing on my base camp...getting ready to make the swap with new housing. So should I expect the new set up needing your shims. I've never heard and noise from the old setup, whatcha think??
@@longcrawler I've never heard of breaking the actual housing so I'm not quite sure about that, all I can tell you is when you're putting the new gears in make sure they don't have excessive slop between them, I don't sell the shims anymore but you could make some pretty easily if you needed to out of a milk jug or something.
Going to be checking my umg6x6 as soon as it arrives. The stock bearings are 7x14x3.5 so I'm looking to see if I can simply fit a 7x14x4 on that side to make the robust mod to the axle! We'll see! This video is so helpful though thank you shimming is definitely plan B 👍
Glad I could help, just curious were did you find the 6x6?
@@SteadfastRC seems to be stock in the UK through our big online hobby shops 👍
@@darrennixon1986 just so you know they discontinued this model recently, there's some more information on my channel if you're interested, you already can't buy parts for it in the US for things like the body etc
Nice, I just grabbed a all metal aftermarket set an they are smooth one direction grind n clack the other direction. Maybe this could fix the issue, I've gone through them greased them up an still the same hopefully this fixed it. Thanks for sharing I was at a loss on why, an about ready to return them.
Yeah it's just a hardcore design flaw, so far nobody that uses my shims has complained after installing them, thanks for watching!
Awesome, I just ordered some. Thank you.
@@WillB.6759 haha, I just got the email alert and figured that was you, thank you I'll get them out to you as soon as possible.
I appreciate it. Have a great week!!!
Just got the shims in. Thanks again for everything. Have a great weekend.
Nice job 👍 little things that make a difference
Yep, its the difference between broken gears or non broken gears!
If found this only happens with the stock sintered metal 1 piece ring gear and locker ring/ pinion sets. Never had this with and under or overdrive machined gear sets.
Very nice tipp,thank you.same axels in my Reely Free Men .
Thank you for the support!
Why not just use a metal washer between bearing and grear?
@@v8felon a metal washer would be much too thick and be very difficult to find the right size
I'm putting this axle together right now going from the older kit version axle to this newer updated version. The question I have it what keeps the bearing and axle shaft from just sliding out? The old style had a lockout but this one doesn't?
Are you referring to the outer bearings?
@SteadfastRC yeah I figured it out, the holes at the ends a for screws to hold the bearing in place
@@dangood6670 yep you got it bud, it's kind of deceiving because the screw heads barely catch the outer race of the bearings
Awesome job!!!!! That is an exact fix for slack in. Diffs.
Thank you, I appreciate it yeah it does save people money in the long run with these axles, they will chew themselves apart if you don't do this.
Hey bro I can’t find the link for the plastic shims. When I click the link the website doesn’t contain the shims
i have the same problem on my ARB axles.. will this work on it?
It might, you would have to take apart the axle and measure the pinion gear shaft and then try shimming behind it to get better tooth engagement on the ring gear
I wish I had seen this before! Mine are all ate-up!
Yeah I have been selling a lot of these lately.
Hey man I'm based in Hong Kong, and your store isn't Available in my region any chance we can work around this shipping obviously covered by me
Please please
Can a portal axle be cut and turned so the portal adds lenghth instead of clearance
Are you talking like running the portals upside down, I think that's the thing some people do?
@SteadfastRC no. I want to rotate them back to extend wheel base instead of longer links.
@@ADHDNME777 oh, I'm not sure about that one
@SteadfastRC im going to try it today on a brass set of no name Amazon china axles. Ill let ya know how it works out
@@ADHDNME777 yeah that would be interesting
I just ordered two sets 🙏
Thank you Travis I'll get them out asap. Can I ask what rig you are using them for and if you are currently having problems? Just for my own curiosity.
Scx 10 II kit
Bad clicking in front worked fine for a long time.... Replace differentials twice still giving clicks I started messing with the yoke and and it went down a little bit but I'm interested in your washer.
cool mod
Thanks island!
I like your channel and your vids! That’s why I’m in (+1) and I say thanks you if you are nice to do it for my Yt. Stay safe and take care! 👍
Thanks! You too!
