Kyosho Dx crank

[Nitromax]

Hi, I need to pick some brains, many years ago I was having great fun when I lost throttle control of the car, Kyosho Inferno DX fitted with a GS21 engine, it decided to attack a stone bus shelter and after hitting it at full tilt, bouncing back about 8ft and deciding to have another go at the bus shelter, it lost and died, culminating in a snapped crank. I ordered a new one but the new one was a modified version with a different thread for the clutch / flywheel, despite searching hi and low, I could not find a correct replacement and the car was put in the loft and forgotten. Fast forward many years and I eventually tracked a correct replacement from Germany. The problem I have is determining if there is a correct dimension for the crank end float, the original schematic shows two shims fitted, part no 6520 - 10., but does not give the thickness of the shim or an end float clearance.. so wondering if any one can advise, thanks

You would have to get someone to measure the width of a shim or buy some

Welcome to RCT bud. So it looks like kyosho shims are from a
.15 - .2 Amain has a lot of options. I would get a shim set. And try them to find the one you need. Or message the guy that has them on ebay and ask if he could messure the one just to make sure it's the one your looking for. Sometimes the person will do that or will just know. I've done it before.. there a couple of that shim here in the states. Can you messure your crank it might be the 8x12x.2mm shim? Here what is found at amain. Let us know if you need any more help
