A lot of people have been creating 6x6 builds with different axle brands on the market. One of the more scale and better clearanced axles are from the Vaterra Ascender. The only challenge has been that with the one-piece housing there was no way to add a third or fourth axle to them. That is all over now! I have created this secondary input housing for the Ascender axle set. It uses the same hardware that the normal cover uses, minus the small, black cover piece.
Note: The part shown in the example picture was printed with SLS Nylon. You will probably have to experiment a little bit with your printer and material to get the desired result.
Required parts (NOT INCLUDED!)
- Spool 24T & Pinion Gear 13T VTR232073
- M3 x 6mm Flat Head Screw VTR235174
- 6mm x 12mm x 4mm Ball Bearing VTR237014
- 10mm x 15mm x 4mm, Nylon Retainer Ball Bearing VTR237028
- Cover screws are reused from the old cover that was removed.
- Ascender drive shafts, with inputs, or some other input shaft like the GCM Racing Ascender Diff Input Shaft x2
It is good to understand that you will need an additional Ascender driveshaft OR you will need two (2) input shafts that let you choose your own brand of driveshafts or customize an existing one.
