Super shafty

[rc crawler boy]

I am having trouble piecing my new transmission together. I am not sure the order of how the top shaft compontents are suppose to go in. So far i am using the stock spacer between the motor plate and trans case. So i put the shaft in then i use the small plastic spacer then the 2 bearings but with all 3 of those i am not able to fit the spur pin in. Then it came with this and i am not sure what it does cause harleys instructions dont include it.

Do you use the two bearings they give you as spacers?

I am using a ax10 case and the ultimate motor plate.

No plastic spacer is used, and I didn't use the 2 bearings as spacers cause they just spin around and rub the case. Id like to get a flanged bearing to fit on the motor plate to further support the shaft if its even needed!

Is it me or those spur cover screws look to be the wrong thread? stock screws for the plastic one maybe

I said the same thing but it came with them.

The bearing should be before the little plastic piece.
That little piece of plastic goes right before the pin.
It basically goes together the same as the stock setup.
I ended using a piece of styrene tubing as my spacer instead
of the stock axial plastic piece.

Also if you used the stock screws for the spur cover that was noted earlier those are wrong.
Those should be 3mm

Lol another note that big stock axial spacer wasn't use when I built my tranny

Spur gear screws are what came already half screwed in so i am just going to use them.

Anything?

I was able to shim the top shaft on the inside against the gear with a .2mm shim, this took out any side to side play and i didnt use the bearings as a fill in spacer. If they suported the shaft at the motor plate i would use them.

I have the stock so maybe its different but I used the little plastic spacer but no bearing. I have the Gen3 slipper tough so maybe that's different.

Oh, that piece in your pic goes into the spring after you put the spring on the shaft. It's what the nut tightens against.

I've had issues with my trans from day one. I built it with the supershafty top shaft, RR 32 slipper/spur etc off the bat. (This was last November/December). I've rebuilt that trans at least 10 times. Following the advice from a buddy (hatefulboy) I replaced the supershafty shaft with the stock staff and now my trans is butter.
