| Vanquish Yeti Bulkhead
The much requested Yeti front bulkhead is appearing out in the wild. I got these pics from UC Fab on FB. Big pinion bearings, built-in hinge pin braces, and the same bearing holders from most of the Vanquish axle housings. Allegedly available soon, no price info so far. |

Hoping they are working on the hinge pins, tighter hole for less play and why not a specific hinge, I've bent all my screws Not problems since I changed for straight rod calibrated and hardened with collars ! Envoyé de mon SM-G930F en utilisant Tapatalk |

Why would you want this? Is anyone having problems with the front bulkhead? Another 50$ and one could get an Exotek aluminium chassis, which would make more sense to me. A Yeti certainly does not need even more weight to the front.

Ive enlarged pinion bearing walls causing me to wipe out ring and pinions. This will eliminate that, as well as adding a ton of strength to the hinge pins. I for one have been waiting on one for a while. if you want it cheap, wait for the cheap china repro's.

Look what showed up today. One item of note: the lower holes meant for the rear toe block of the Exo are open to the inside of the diff case. You will want to plug these with some setscrews when installing on the Yeti to keep dirt out. This will be going on my IFS Bomber in the near future. |

| Re: Vanquish Yeti Bulkhead I got this one from Liquid RC on ebay (after ebay sent out a 20% off everything coupon ), kinda surprising they had the bulkheads so quickly. Shipping to Germany from that seller costs $15, not cheap but way better than $45. Unfortunately they are sold out of the bulkheads now (not surprising because they only had 2 to start with).
