CVD Question

[NCNitro]

Does anyone know if I can use these MIP cvd outdrives with my Dynamite CVDs

MIP Outdrive

I dont see any reason why not. The bones are the same length right?

As far as I know they are but I am not totally sure. I can't believe Dynamite does not sell replacement parts. Oh well looks like next sets are gonna be MIP, at least you can get parts for those.

I've heard of guys buying the XTM cups because you can get those individually. At least last season.

can't get the LHS on the phone to confirm. Busy Busy Busy.... Damn payday!

Christian, any chance you got a link for the XTM cups. I couldn't find them. Thanks

Still trying to get LHS on phone

Here's a MIP outdrive specific for TRAXXAS models:

and another:

Couldn't find anything on XTM outdrive cups.

Sky, I found those too, and if were any other one other than the one with the brake on it it would work, but i need one with a pin through it for the brake to swivel on it. Those use two set screws. I also don't know if the screw thread size is the same as the traxxas yoke pins because I am going to have to buy a set of traxxas tranny output cups just to get the long yoke pin, since traxxas does not sell them seperately. Thanks for looking though.

Sorry, didn't see your link in the original thread. If I come across anything useful, I'll pass it on.

 

[NCNitro]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I might be off on this, but you can try this outdrive hub for the center shafts. If you have the MIP center CVDs, this is what they come with. Notice that there is a longer grub screw that comes with it. That is for going through the brake hex, the outdrive hub and then securing the assembly to the outdrive shaft from the gearbox.

This might be what you are looking for.

I actually have the Dynamite center cvds.

Was there supposed to be a link to something?

 

[SkyMaxx]

Doh! Don't you just hate that. Sorry.

Thats a strange looking thing. Not even sure how that would work. I emailed Dynamite we'll see what happens. Thanks again guys

 

[SkyMaxx]

It is part of the MIP CVD. This is the ball part of the ball/universal joint on one end of the CVD. Anyway, the longer grub screw is for going through the break hub. Dynamite might have something similar. Good luck in your quest.

Thanks Sky, that set up is totally different than the Dynamite. I am still waiting to hear back from them.
