| Aluminum C-Hubs
Does anybody know when the Aluminum C-Hub's are going to be available. For a while now they have been out of stock, but I cant seem to find out when they will be available for purchase again. Temporarily I had to just buy the stock plastic ones again, which should hold up decently well as long as my CVD Pin stays in place this time. But I still do want to upgrade to the Aluminums. I used lots of thread lock, but that didnt seem to make a difference. I also bought some more set screws, I was thinking about putting two in each CVD as a precaution for next time. Thanks.

Make sure there is no oil on the screws (oil is used when making the threads) and no grease in the threads you are screwing it into. Any oil or grease at all will make loctite useless. |

Thanks for the tip. I will be sure to wipe them down first, I didnt the first time. Im sure that was a big factor in it.

Venom recommended to me to use 2 set screws for the driveshafts and CVD's. I also ordered some brass tubing to see if I can get it to fit over the CVD.

put some heat shrink or wrap some electrical tape around them. I had the same problem. Its a good cheap fix.

I'm still wondering myself when they will be available. I've seen where people talk about the axial aluminum c-hubs that venom makes may fit, but not positive yet... About $9 on tower, might be worth a try.
